Artist Statement
I have always been an admirer of the Old Masters, and a student of classical technique. Salvador Dali said to, “Begin by learning to draw and paint like the old masters. After that, you can do as you like; everyone will respect you.” But the Old Masters are the apotheosis of painting, so it has not been an easy task to learn to paint like them. They learned painting technique firsthand from their own masters, and classical technique comes in many variations. I set out to figure it out mostly on my own, because times have changed.
On this path, I worried that it was not quite good enough, and that before I could find my voice and really “speak,” I was supposed to reach some particular (mysterious) level of mastery. Therefore, every painting that I have done over the past 20 years has in many ways been a study to me, mostly a way to get better.
I am a late bloomer and a throwback sometimes feeling as if I live outside of my own time. Over the years I kept some ideas hidden away in the most remote places in my mind. I am like a magma chamber that is finally going to erupt.
