Article
I am an American artist who lives and works in Mexico. Captivated by the brilliant light and color of Mexico, by the people, their festivals, their faith, the marketplaces, the flowers and the street life, I try to apply the teachings of my teacher Hans Hofmann vis-a-vis the relationship of color, space and form in order to realize a balance of these three elements and to produce a vibrant image. I would describe my work as a portrayal of Mexican life and the style as that of expressionistic realism.
