Artist Statement I was born in 1942 and grew up in a rural farmland setting which made me develop a keen awareness of nature. Later I took up photography and scuba diving which made me adware of the underwater world.
After attending Medical school and practicing for many years, I moved to the Dominican Republic where I began my painting experiences.
My goal is to capture the local flavor of the island enviroment in acrylic and other mediums.
I have an interest in African wildlife and also digital art creations.
Remember...life is short..savour every moment and have fun painting...that is my philosophy of life
