| Statement |
| "My work has evolved slowly, openly through a commitment not to be limited by acceptable techniques. Technique has come through on its own as needed and the art has unfolded. I hope to evoke the possibilities in a moment of seeing rather than to define the sight; to use this as a moment of departure rather than an end in view and to bring to bear the full impact of what appear to be small things, but in fact can become quite grand." |

| Education |
| Studied briefly with Brandy Wine Valley, Pennsylvania painter, Rea Redifer. Largely self-taught |
