These are my daily paintings. I enjoy the discipline involved, working quickly from life.

A Night in Tunisia
Oil on canvas
8X6" $185
I just love all things Moroccan and Middle Eastern. I painted this lantern with a candle lit inside. It is a sweet lantern and a part of my collection.
Beauty is what moves me. I don’t comment on the state of the world today. I return the viewer to the foundation of human values, the heart of love. Without that, we are animals.
My oil painting methods are rooted in past centuries. But I keep loose and intuitive, to unite my inner state with the spirit of my subject. This produces a timeless quality that strikes a relaxing chord, a resonance in the viewer.
