'Poetry in Paint'

"Poetry (is) a speaking picture, with this end; to teach and delight"

from Sir Phillip Sidney The Defense of Poetry"

Here is my artwork that I call 'Poetry in Paint'.  In many ways it is the outcome of a spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings.   And like poetry it is an expression of something not easily defined.  Nature is central to all of these abstract and contemporary works.  In viewing, I hope you are touched by the beauty, grace, and vibrancy that surrounds us in Louisiana.
