The Uncertainty of Being Certain In Uncertain Times (Vision in Venice l)

Artist Statement As my work continues to evolve it is still rooted within the European Realist Tradition of Painting, reflecting my personal visual language in an open and imaginative way. I focus on both the urban and natural environment while incorporating a passion for sculptural forms.
