“I am a painter of domestic life. Objects, light, textiles, the yard and garden. The still life is a spring board for color. I'm influenced by the frescos of Pompeii, the 1700 Dutch painters of interiors and family life, Bonnard and Jane Freilicher. I enjoy playing with scale, making very large pictures of common objects and, conversely very small paintings of interiors. It's all autobiographical, manipulation of color, scale and form to tell a story.”
