I am surrounded by many things which inspire my work. I am inspired by the works of other artists working in many media. I am inspired by the beauty of Florida and the desire to preserve that beauty for future generations. I am inspired by the beauty and simplicity of mathematics even in the most complicated forms. I am inspired by nature and the wonderful flora and fauna which decorates our earth. I am inspired by the love of my country and the desire to preserve the freedoms we all cherish.
