I am an American painter and I have spent several years developing my work in Spain. In my contemporary figurative style, I am concerned with light. The lights and darks are my main expressive motivation. I do not seek detail, but the minimum – using figurative references to create moods and sensations, in which the viewer can see an intelligent use of light.

Large-format landscapes, interiors, the loneliness of the human figure and light, especially natural light in contrast to shade, are the themes that underpin my work.
