I believe in the power of beauty to take us out of ourselves, to give hope, to inspire, and to break mental boundaries of our own limitations.  Whenever I’m working on a landscape, a portrait or a figurative painting, I think of the intangible and timeless within my work. I'm attracted to and focused on beauty's visible and invisible components. Thus my artworks take a semi-abstract quality, capturing the invisible, and expanding beyond the boundaries of traditional genres in art.
