“When I paint there is a direct correlation between me and my artwork . It is often motivated by my people, G-d, nature, politics and internal inspiration." A few of my paintings were given to Senator Ted Kennedy (OBM), Representative Lynn Woolsey, President Bill and Senator Hilary Clinton, President Carter, and friends as well as family.
