"Mood is everything. Too much fact constricts fantasy, imagination feasts on the hidden."
"Magic! It's what makes things sublime. It's the difference between a picture that is profound art and just a painting of an object."
ARTIST STATEMENT
When a person is willing to spend money to purchase a work of art they become a collector. The answers as to why they respond to any work are varied and endless, but the bottom line is that they like it. After many years of selling paintings, I have found that almost every painting has a buyer – it just takes time to put the two together. At times it happens as quickly as “selling it off the easel”, while with others it may take several years. I have had collectors approach me after several years and ask if I still had a painting that they can’t forget. If it is still available, I tell them “Yes I still have it but it has won several awards since and therefore the price has increased.”
