Artist Statement
Since I was a child I’ve always been fascinated by the wildlife of the sea; in particular the flora and fauna of the worlds tropical coral reefs. Having this fascination has also compelled me to express it in my art. Since graduating with a B.F.A. from Northern Illinois University in 1991 I’ve always painted wildlife in a realistic fashion specifically underwater wildlife. My acrylic paintings are an attempt at conveying my passion for the watery” world and its inhabitants. By using light color and composition I want to express this passion for the ocean.”
