ARTIST STATEMENT
”I’ve been thinking a lot about interest, awe, and wonder. Every morning when I drive my daughter to school, invariably I say, “look at that sky!” It is because the morning sky truly interests me, every day. Sometimes it is a stunningly beautiful sunrise. Sometimes, the morning is the most dense and somber gray. Both convey meaning. Both capture my interest.
"My paintings are of the views that I inhabit. They are of places I know intimately or discover anew. I consider earth, water, and sky. I revel in the way clouds and sky alter the light on the earth below. I am drawn to trees and rocks that punctuate water and push through a plane to vary its textures and present new counterpoints. It is all endlessly changing and fascinating. I stand in awe of it.
"I hope to convey a sense of place with my paintings and to inspire in the viewer a feeling of nostalgia, of discovery, of peace and of wonder."
