I still take photographs for my own use, personal studies. I do not feel that I can fully express my views through the medium and this is why I have moved towards painting. ↗

Painting is really good fun, I have always enjoyed it. As long as I paint what I want with the freedom that I enjoy, I never tire. ↗

The majority of my work is from life. I spend most fine days from May to October painting outside. ↗

I also paint and enjoy acrylic medium; some of my close friends have paintings I did for them. ↗

I don't like getting out when I could be painting. And when I'm painting, I don't want anybody else around. ↗

I dream of painting and then I paint my dream. ↗

I experience a period of frightening clarity in those moments when nature is so beautiful. I am no longer sure of myself, and the paintings appear as in a dream. ↗

I can very well do without God both in my life and in my painting, but I cannot, suffering as I am, do without something which is greater than I am, which is my life, the power to create. ↗
