He Asked me to Dance  26 x 24

Love certainly is always the last painting you have done.  There are so many
elements going on in this painting and I truly felt like I was dancing across this
painting.

After being a landscape painter for so long then doing a season of the florals I began
to like the names that brought out the emotions I felt when I painted the piece.  I feel
that this is so for my abstracts.  It may seem like I have bounced around but really I
was on a mission with my art.  Coming from school when traditional art was the strong
suit to take and especially the figure and of course not being a conformist I so wanted
to do abstracts.  Teachers were horrified.   What a hoot but I did not give up.  Eventually
everything cycles back around and an artist has the opportunity to shine.  So now I can
say I've done most all of it.  Advertising, illustration, figural work to landscapes to
still life and ahhhhhhhhhhh I have  landed at my original destination.  I enjoy this to no
end.   It is my great pleasure to share this with you.
