Call Me An Optimist

I paint my versions of heaven;

places that are beautiful and meditative not found on earth.

Call me an optimist, but I believe that art can heal. Man has the powerful ability to dream, to create better worlds and new realities. And images play an important role in this. Our history begins with images, which go far back in time, even farther than language, and are cross cultural.

We are united through images. I keep this in mind daily as I am barraged through news and media with sensationalist stories and events of world crisis. Part of me wants to join the peace corps but instead I paint.

I paint with the conviction that my images can heal.
