About Me

My photo
Gainesville, Florida, United States
Astronomy themes, landscapes and public art are some of the targets of my work. These are the best of times as we stand on the threshold of unprecedented discovery in space. As a space artist, I am grateful for and inspired by the amazing images of faraway places that the great telescopes of our generation have given us. As a plein air painter, I am inspired to quickly capture light, color and movement with the focus on our rapidly changing environment. As an artist within the live public art venue I am inspired by the opportunity for creativity, spontaneity and exchange.

11/29/10 Fountains of Youth


The springs are our favorite places to visit and they offer an experience unique in the world. These are the "Fountains of Youth" and their crystalline waters flow from deep, mysterious caverns. Natives know the saying that "Fall is for Floridians" and we know that during this off-season time of year it is possible to have these places all to your peaceful self, quite the contrast to summertime when everyone and his yahoo brother is here getting cooled off. The temperature of the water remains a constant 72 degrees year round and actually feels warm on a cool day.
