I like to paint outdoors best.
I take delight in observing the forms that I find around me, especially where I live. There is a distinct character and beauty which I want to record. Ordinary scenes have plenty to reveal and tend to be my subjects. I enjoy the challenge of capturing the angles and shadows that make the scene seem alive.
Not only do I find the scene attractive, but there is a historical and geographical aspect to it, that often adds poignance.
