“Painting nature, matter, stone, water, wood, reminds me of my past in specialized painting. At that time, I was doing faux-finishes, decorative texture, trompe l'oeil and murals. I have also done copy art from great masters; Renoir, Van Gogh, Manet and more.” “In 2014, I made the decision to turn definitively to painting on canvas. It was my
"Freedom 55" retirement plan. Since then, nearly 200 paintings and 4 murals have seen the light of day.”
