Artist Statement:
I am showing paintings of landscapes and cityscapes from sites in NYC and NJ. All my paintings originate as plein-air and proceed to completion later in the studio. While drawing a physical space I am honing my choice of a painting motif. By painting, I seek to establish a convincing light and sense of place that is achieved through color exageration and invention.
