It is representational art. I paint the world around me. I am inspired by light, shadow, color and shapes. I get bored painting the same subject matter so you will find that my work is varied. I love painting animals, interiors, figures, seascapes and more. I work in oil and acrylic, but my primary medium is acrylics because I live and paint on our boat. They make for easy clean up and are less harmful to my air quality. Periodically, I paint from life or plein air, but mostly I paint from photographic references. The rules I have learned from painting from life are part of my inner dialogue. Painting from life teaches me that shadows are not black and highlights are not pure white.
