Artist Statement
"The key ingredient in the making of all great art is enthusiasm for one's subject. Whether painting from life or from photos, the artist's job is to engage in the creative process and convey true emotion.
"As John Ruskin put it 'Paint what you love and love what you paint'."
—Eric Jacobsen
