Cityscapes
My work is inspired and informed by my background as an animator, by my love of representational and especially figurative art and of street photography. As I wander the streets of San Francisco, I find myself being constantly seduced by color and light, fascinated by the people I meet on every street corner. In my paintings I try to capture the beauty of each one of those elusive moments. I find inspiration in the world around me, in the city where I live, in the golden glow of the sunrise and the warmth of the afternoon light.
As one of my teachers, Chester Arnold once said, "here’s to the humble reality- the source of everything, all around us - a moment to share with you now, as the sun sets on a day survived...happily."
