Right now you are probably saying, "This guy doesn't know what he wants to do!" My answer is "I don't want to do the same thing each time I sit down to paint." Creating new problems to solve has kept me going for the last 30 years. Writing this blog has forced me to take a closer look at my work. I have discovered that I am, indeed, fascinated with the moon, the stars, and water. Many of my works include these elements- some realistic, others symbolic. Here I have limited my palette and repeated the circular shape throughout the work. The desire to create with just simple shapes dictates the direction of this particular work. It is my hope that I bring to each of you a new way of looking at what surrounds us. Today, let's keep it simple.

Special note to Mary Wegman: Wassily Kandinsky- 1913-"Squares with Concentric Circles"=
inspiration.
