​​about

​​​None of my work was intentional, it developed over time. I never liked to explain a certain piece of work. If I have made a picture and I am happy with it, hopefully it can speak for itself. Each person takes something a little different from the same picture. I use flowers, fruits, objects to explore color and texture. Sometimes I focus on the smallest section of anything, a rope, a glass, a tomato and I make it bigger to the point of abstraction, not attempting to paint in a realistic style.
