I don't paint to impress. I paint because I believe in what I feel.

Each canvas is a conversation with my past and present, my emotions and memories, my failures and victories. My strokes are not perfect, nor do they try to be. They are raw, honest, imperfect. Like life itself.

 

I don't know if I am an artist, but I believe my paintings hold something real. They carry pieces of my family, the love I share with my wife, the silent  presence of my dogs, the landscapes that shaped me, and the moments that left their mark.

 

Nature is my greatest teacher. The way water moves, how the earth transforms, the changing colors of the sky before nightfall, these rhythms live in my work. My paintings are not just images; they are fragments of time; echoes of what words cannot capture.

 

I also believe in something beyond us. The stars that have guided humanity for centuries, the vastness of the universe, the idea that we are part of something greater. Maybe that's why my paintings are not just about what is seen, but about what is felt, what we remember, what we dream, what we still long to understand.

Not everyone connects with my art, and that's okay. But for those who do, I hope my work becomes a mirror, a memory, a feeling. That it makes them pause, reflect, and see something they had forgotten.

 

We are all connected to each other, to the past, to the earth, to the universe. Art is not about perfection, but truth. What we leave behind, the colors we bring into the world, that is our legacy.
