What I love about water – ocean, lake, river, waterfall – is how it is always changing. Plus ça change, plus c’est la même. Change is inevitable. The challenge is how to capture the depth, the movement. In my abstract, acrylic paintings, water sometimes looks like water, but it also sometimes looks like space or sky. Honestly, it’s not something I always control. Some paintings just happen.

The Sicilian Sunsets are beautiful, especially when seen from Zafferana at the base of Mount Etna. It was hard to focus on dinner when the view was so spectacular. Our first trip after the Covid pandemic will be impossible to forget. This is one sunset I'm especially happy to memorialize.
