“Discovering
at an early age that Florida was truly remarkable with all its
diversity, our state became the exclusive focal-point for my
work as a wildlife & scenic artist. My old house sits on
wooded acreage in Hernando County, but I consider all of Florida
to be my true home and my stomping ground.
With a vivid
imagination and a lifelong craving for adventure, my original
acrylic paintings are always based on experience and imaginative
ideas. I won’t paint something unless I have experienced
it in the wild; I never work paintings directly from photographs,
I work exclusively from my own creative designs. My goal with
my art has always been to achieve faultless realism with fine
detail, and then to manipulate that realism achieving scenes
that could never be captured with a camera. I hope that my paintings
provide others with a colorful and insightful look at the relationships,
the struggles, the reasoning and learning, the dreams and the
adventures that all wild creatures must experience.”
