Visual Art – Washington, D.C.

Why art? Well, perhaps a chance to speak for ideas that I know can not be painted with image or word. Much like trying to describe smell or sound with other senses. You can visualize the connection, but it is never the same. Often when I start painting, I don\'t really have any specific idea in mind. Rather, I mostly paint with the purpose of giving myself time to explore things that I think are useful to work out in my mind, such as difficult or taxing questions, or just a linking idea. As I work, the images and associations I have as I see the art are not, and should not necessarily be, the same as what other see. We all witness different things taken from our own experiences. I hope you will enjoy what I have to share.
