My work is narrative at heart – capturing a moment in time like a single frame in a movie. What happened before that moment or what will happen after is left to the viewer.
The subject of a piece may be an observer as well, watching something or someone else. Seeing what captures their interest can tell us much about who they are and why they are there.
My landscapes are also narrative. I paint scenes of places – urban or rural – to which I have an emotional tie.
