Artist Statement: I came back to painting with a new seriousness just in the last few years. I’m a novelist with several books in print; for most of my life that’s been my major artistic outlet. When I’m painting, I think I’m still always looking for the story – specifically the story with a little bit of mystery. Most of my best paintings ask a question that I don’t answer.
