From his website:
“I have been drawn to decay and the transitory nature of the world around us. Buildings and communities age and disappear into the mist and are confined to stories of days past.

My paintings hold onto the world that is lost or disappearing – sometimes in the blink of an eye.”
I like that thinking.
