"For several decades the main focus of my work as a painter has been small format still lives. Simple arrangements of familiar things, placed on a shelf in natural light. The subject of the paintings being the interaction between object, light, and the enveloping atmosphere of a given day. The comfort of repetition, of returning to limited, familiar variables, has allowed me freedom to shift my attention to the act of painting itself.
