I currently live on Cape Cod where I am an abstract oil painter. My work is primarily large. done in both brush and palette knife, and all in studio. The work is personal, sometimes emotional and filled with bright color and heavy texture. I have always been drawn to artists that broke down barriers and turned objective art into subjective.
