I do not choose the subjects that I paint they choose me I just happen upon them in my endless wandering for inspiration and they appear when I least expect them.  

Although I have painted landscapes in oils of city scenes and stop lights in an urban setting. I find I am drawn in later life back to my roots that of  landscape and as I have always done still life .

 

My most recent forays have been to Maine and Nova Scotia places I have always wanted to paint and now have the luxury of doing so. I am drawn to the scenery as many artists have been in the past and will be in future.
