Most of my time I spend trying to create (or find) order, connection or purpose in my surroundings. It should be no surprise to me that in my paintings the same thing happens. For me, art is a visual expression of an emotional connection to something, whether it is a landscape, a single flower, or a thought. Every piece tells a story and it’s wonderful if my story touches the soul of the viewer too.

Summertime!!!

Can it really be five months since I have written? Thankfully, it has not been five months since I have painted or done something creative. The paintings for my grandson have been painted, framed, and sent. There turned out to be three of my photos that tempted me. Jonathan is just beginning. Jonathan is climbing. Jonathan is soaring.

Were I called on to define very briefly the term art, I should call it "the reproduction of what the senses perceive in nature through the veil of the soul." Edgar Allen Poe
