About Me

Several years ago I traded in my corporate desk for an easel. I got the better end of that deal, and couldn't be more fortunate. My paintings are still lifes on an intimate scale which owe an obvious and conscious debt to the great Dutch still life artists of 350 years ago. However, I live and work here and now, so modern sensibilities also assert themselves, albeit in subtle ways. Thank you for looking, and I hope you enjoy the artwork.

You made the right decision to become an artist! And my question now to you is if you still have the painting of the cut lemon with the knife? Love it.

jeanne illenye - 8/24/2008 6:16:00 PM

Love seeing your newest work! Been fun watching your work progress. I think my newest favorite is the lemon with that gorgeous knife! Jeanne

Thanks Jean-Marie and Jeanne; very kind of you both. Unfortunately, the lemon and knife painting is sold.

I''ve stalked your blog for a long time so I guess I should come out of the shadows and greet you. You are quite an inspiration. Thank you for many smiles and a few cuss words (well intended) in between.

Truly gorgeous work. I can definitely see the Dutch influence but there is also an economical elegance to your choice of subject matter.
