What is your artist background? Self-taught by studying paintings by dead artists.
How do you describe your work? My work is a response to the beauty and
simplicity of the things I find around me. In figure and landscape, careful
study reveals the undercurrents and rhythms of existence.
Who are the living artists you find more interesting? Any artist who paints
with enthusiasm is inspiring.
Who are the no longer living artists you find most interesting? Turner,Rembrandt, Corot, Sargent, Whistler, Waterhouse, Inness and especially Gainsborough.
Should art have a social/political message? It can have, but not necessarily. Everyone is different. I'm compelled to follow the creative process which begins and ends at the decimal point between the positive and
the negative. "At the still point of the turning world...there the dance is"
T.S. Elliot
Why do you do art? That's a very good question. I've thought about it, but I
still don't know. It's a compulsion.
