To look at something as though we had never seen it before requires great courage.
Henri Matisse
The paintings I have done that I personally like the most are those that I feel some sort of connection with. To some extent, this can depend on my emotional state at the time that I did the painting. I particularly like painting landscapes, but have experimented with abstracts as well.

Visual Diary This is where I discuss the development of a few works – a sort of "visual diary". |

What is Art? As I have improved my own skills and developed more of a personal style, I have gradually come to have a personal definition of what art is - and what it is not. I am not trying to suggest that I have the "correct" view on the subject, but my opinion quite naturally affects the subjects I choose and the way in which I work. |
