I really enjoyed doing this portrait.  I tried to portray his personality, and I think I was successful.

I really like boats.  I love paddling my canoe, fishing in Florida, sailing in New England or just looking at them.  This painting shows the angles and shapes of rowboats next to a dock.  That’s interesting to me.

This is Santaquin Canyon in central Utah.  I was born just a few miles away from here.  I’ve portrayed the rugged peaks, the sagebrush and thistles that are found here.

Whenever I go to a track and field competition I’m awestruck when I see the well-toned bodies as they thunder down the track.  These athletes give every ounce of effort.  I’m inspired by them–it makes me want to apply the same resolve and determination to the tasks I’m trying to complete.

Aili is the director of Nickel Plate Arts, an organization headquartered in Noblesville, Indiana.  They are involved in many activities in that area like festivals, workshops, classes and many other activites that enrich their community.

This is a portrayal of boats in the harbor with the sunset reflected in the water.  I’ve painted a lot of boats and will continue to do so, but there is just something magic about that subject.  This painting is my personal expression, just as someone sings, etc.  I guess I was singing with my paint brush.
