HOW I SEE IT

I’m sitting here typing from my office at home. The window next to my desk overlooks Oso Bay, which is small and somewhat churned up regularly but the sun rises just across and when you catch it in just the perfect light, which can happen several times a day, the view is breathtaking..or better said…makes me feel like I can breathe deeply and easily. I have always appreciated a good view. There is something extremely hopeful about looking out over a seemingly limitless horizon. It gives me a feeling of freedom, hope for the future, and like there is always something more to come. That feeling, that itch of always wanting more..of wanting to discover, is what feeds my creativity.

Why Blog? Why Paint? .....a letter to the reader

Someone close to me once commented that he thought blogging was a completely narcissistic endeavor. Admittedly, I partially agree but one could argue that making art is the same thing. I do if for me, because I enjoy it and it’s a way for me to have the more serious conversations with others which are difficult to articulate in the traditional way.
