My Career Path...
In June of 1966 I began the business chapter of my life. It is eye opening when I realize that this chapter has lasted 60 years and counting! During this time period, I worked for 3 corporations and founded a consulting firm, REFocus, Inc in 1994. At Refocus we had a purpose statement, "challenging people and organizations to discover and walk new paths to success." When I “opened the doors” to Textures’ Palette, I realized that I was actually doing what I had been advising my clients to do for the last 32 years. By founding Textures’ Palette, I was finding and walking on that new path in a new chapter of my life.
My Purpose...
I hold an opportunity to create a painting as a gift to me and hopefully...to you. When you view one of my paintings, my hope is that you experience an uplifting connection to the scene... that a meaningful life's memory re-awakens... that you feel a moment of peace and reflection and joy.
My Approach...
Beginning in 2016, there has been a subtle and gradual transition from a world of solving business problems to a new world of capturing and sharing a moment in time. The sources of inspiration for my "moments" come from photographs, life long memories, and imagination. My medium is oil on canvas, and I like to use bright colors. I am generous with my paint, and the layered textures create shadows and site lines that result in a 3rddimensional effect. I seek to draw my viewers into the scene.
I want to thank you for visiting my website. I hope that you enjoy your walk through the “gallery.” And, as we grow our collection, that you will feel compelled to visit again.
