This photograph of a snowy egret was taken at the Malibu lagoon by Mark Farber.  I love it so much, I decided to write a poem!

My most recent painting was inspired by a quote from Auguste Rodin's book, "Cathedrals of France." From chapter one, "Harmony in living bodies results from the counterbalancing of masses that move.

When it comes to music and words, I write and rewrite a lot in my head.  I go through multiple versions before the first draft ever gets to the page. So I find it a refreshing change to paint.  You can see a few of my paintings in this website, on the contact page, the king poem, and in the music section.  My paintings evolve over long periods of time - I paint a gesture or layer, let it sit for weeks or months, and then add a new element.  They are meditations on shape and color. Here is one very few have seen in person.  What does it say to you?
