Artist Statement
In the words of Vincent Van Gogh: "I'll learn to work by working, and . . . my work will become better and more substantial." You learn to do the work by making the work and with each new painting I am astonished by how much I learn. I also firmly believe what my teacher Bruce Dorfman taught me, that anyone can make art but that no one can make the art that you can create. |
