Next Writing On The Wall Exhibit

Artist Statement

I started painting about ten years ago as I was approaching retirement. I usually work from photographs (that I sometimes glue to the back of the painting), and paint only with acrylics in a semi-impressionistic, folk artsy style.  I draw inspiration from the abundance of beautiful and interesting topics found locally.

I was especially influence by my mother-in-law Hazel Rochester. Hazel painted local scenes of buildings and landscapes that she felt might not survive, as a record of what once was . 

I hope you enjoy the exhibit.
