About Me
We depend upon the world around us for so many obvious reasons, but noticing and actually feeling the tactile and ever changing visual miracles seems essential for our emotional well being. I love to make work that draws the viewer in, and gives one a chance to daydream. I use elements of the landscape as means to relax, escape, and hopefully trigger the viewer to simply become more aware.
In addition to painting, I've been experimenting with printmaking more and more within the last 20 years, and feel that it helps me with my painting. Moving back and forth between the two mediums helps to keep me engaged, seeking for the best translation of a particular idea or feeling. This work is rooted in the landscape, but clearly has a language of its own.
It's my intention to make work that emits feelings of awe and wonder.
