I have loved the outdoors since I was a small child. My love of painting came later yet it flows directly from this earlier passion. I seek to capture the aliveness of the natural world through the strong use of color and attention to the shapes found in nature. as I evolve as an artist, I am experimenting with pushing shape and color to a more abstract, elemental level while continuing to maintain an emotional connection to my subject. What I love about making art is that it is always a journey, never a destination. I hope to take whoever views my art on the journey with me.
