These paintings could be described as scenes from American Graffiti.
Cars, ice cream cones, jelly beans, young boys and girls.... Guns and airplanes, swimming pools...
The artist has a masterful skill to put these things together in beautiful impressionistic paintings.
These images are things he has been through.
I really like these optimistic, playful, but, in a sense very restrained paintings.
“The painting process is really a series of intuitive moves.”
"Painting is supposed to be a journey where you find something out”.
“I don’t want to be too obsessed with them, but sometimes you just have to paint your way through something …”
