“I paint the places that I know, places that I love. I want you to step into my paintings and experience these places with me; to feel the sand between their toes as they walk on my sun-warmed beaches, to dive into my paintings and swim in my oceans, to cruise through my paintings on the decks of my boats. If home is where the heart is, then each of these paintings is my home. I want you to not just see a painting, but to feel the ocean’s wind in your hair, taste the salt spray on your lips, and hear the seagulls calling to you.”
