My paintings are representational but not realistic.  On the surface, my work is rather simple - a chair, a suitcase, two women.  But with more careful scrutiny, much more lies under the surface.  Light and color are part of my tools to solicit an emotional response.  I divide my canvas into large blocks.  Light and shadow unite all the areas. My palette is vibrant, strong and intertwined, throughout.  Figures are more suggestive than real.  In the end, the viewer should ask: "What is really going on here?"
