Artist’s Statement
My work is about the beauty of the natural world as well as the craft of painting itself. I value the
characteristics present in both – composition, varied textures, and the power of light and color. I
intend the stillness of my scenes to bring to mind times long past and the luminosity to suggest a
slight enchantment. Many find the paintings an escape, the meandering paths and waters avenues
for adventure. Yet, some find the scenes familiar – perhaps the backyard they grew up in, a road
they took once, or a landscape more interior.
I choose to work in a style that creates an intimate experience for my viewers. The size emphasizes
the importance of each brushstroke. I employ traditional techniques and the finest quality
watercolors and oils to create landscapes with atmosphere and depth. These mediums allow me to
portray the ephemeral beauty of our world in a lasting manner.
I am drawn to portraiture as well as equine and canine subjects. Yet, many of my landscapes are
without a protagonist, allowing the viewer to walk into the scene, or perhaps more accurately, to
stand in the grass at the edge of the scene and breathe a breath of fresh air.
“I paint in a way that makes my heart sing and hope that the people who view these paintings find
the same song resonating in their own hearts.”
