Deciding what to paint is sometimes as tricky a task as actually creating the artwork. I like to select things that produce a feeling within me, usually of hope, a bit of magic, or just a sense that what's there is more than the sum of its parts.

It's with that idea that I named my latest collection One + One = Three. The idea that you can combine elements together that create something greater than themselves individually. Say for example, you have palm trees and a wall; on their own, they are fairly plain, but all of a sudden, with a bit of lighting, there's a new feeling there that didn't exist before.
