"Art is not always a strictly aesthetic process; it is a means of imposing form on our thoughts and experience so we can recognize our desires and fears. I render the space and objects around me to give meaning and value to them and as a meditation. The resulting paintings embody serenity and balance and an escape into a tranquil moment."
