My canvases are peopled with characters whose lives I try to imagine. I use photographs that I take of people  on the street, the subways and, now, in museums, which I use as source material. My latest project has evolved to portray the human panorama found in art museums. Viewers from many diverse cultures and backgrounds crowd museums, perhaps attracted to the idea of creative masterpieces. As an artist copying some of my favorite artists’ works, I feel a connection to these artists and the figurative tradition. 

I have become more and more exhilarated by the process of painting in a two dimensional format. Though I paint recognizable imagery, I don’t always use local color and make aesthetic decisions in the immediate experience of paint on canvas. This maintains the idea of movement in the passing scene, while unifying the composition.
