"The aqueous quality of watercolor paint make it a natural match for the depiction of the Chesapeake Bay region via plein air painting. I love living in this vibrant area which magically melds the natural with the man-made and marvel at the tenacious people who make a living from the water." - Stacey Perrine Sass
"I prefer to work intuitively and improvisational with no predetermined result in mind. I seek to express in paint the rich nuances and energy that a place presents within this moment in time." -Fred Jackson
