Artist's Statement: "To be touched by art is to double our awareness; to be touched anew by the experience of existence which gives us such form, such light, such spirit. I intend my paintings to grow into old friends, beautiful in their familiarity." Principe, 24 x 18 in. oil on linen, 2009	Young Man In A White Shirt, oil on panel, 20 x 16 in. 2009 "How much painting contributes to the honest pleasures of the mind, and to the beauty of things, may be seen in various ways but especially in the fact that you will find nothing so precious which association with painting does not render far more valuable and highly prized." ˜ Leon Battista Alberti˜ On Painting I
