“In "Quiet Encounter," I tried to capture
the best elements of nature in the most
beautifully visual way possible. It has
turned out to be one of my most colorful
paintings -- yet a very peaceful image.
Stimulating colors often stimulate the
senses visually and keep one "up". Somehow,
however, the lazy trickle of the stream and
the crispness of the air in this eastern
mountain landscape invite me to rest on a
big rock and soak it in. Then out of nowhere
appear a couple of whitetail deer and some
wild turkeys and wallah! A moment you'd
never forget.”
