Artists Statement

Although I occasionally paint other subjects, the human face and body hold the most interest for me as an artist.  The following quote by the artist, Juliette Aristides, sums up my feelings on the subject :

“By celebrating a single personality, portraiture provides a humanizing influence in an age of detachment.”
