Inspired by seeing a cloud that looked like a horse after the ballet, I combined the two. My knight in shining amour is delivering flowers to his love, a ballerina, via the back window of her dressing room. His delivery attempts will be futile because his horse is but a cloud. In addition, the ballerina has a room full of flowers from other admirers She does not want anymore so she rebuffs him with her corset made of thorns. I hope this inspires viewers to think about their own loves, successful or otherwise I used thick acrylic paint to realistically render the ballerina and the interior. So that everything outside the room seemed more dreamlike, I thinned the paint and rendered the knight, cloud/horse, ocean, falling flowers in an impressionistic manner. Love can be as ephemeral as rose petals, so I pressed petal-shaped cut paper into the wet paint to reflect this.

As a painter, I am an explorer, uncovering, recording and rearranging the beauty of the natural world, as well as the beauty of human beings. I select and distill the very essence of my subject, harmony between nature and humanity, sometimes combining the two. This symbiosis makes the finished work even more beautiful than either of its constituents alone. When you first visit my fantasy world, you will notice a lot of extraordinary things going on in my paintings. For instance, I might substitute a bird for a hat, or a butterfly for a bowtie. These unusual substitutions function as symbols and provide subtle clues and playful suggestions about my work. The shapes of birds and hats, or butterflies and bowties, are so similar that viewers never even question the replacements. I pick the substitutes because they fit graphically and visually. But it is more than that. We as humans fit with nature. We fit together so well, in fact, that I am able to paint a natural object–a butterfly–in place of the bowtie–and viewers can see this as truth. My world will refresh you with its vibrant colors, textures, and interchangeable shapes as you immerse yourself in the integration of nature and humanity. You will be at peace with yourself and at one with nature. You will experience nature in a totally new way and see beauty in places where you never before thought to look.
