My studio is my center. I paint in response to what my paint does. Materials lead, in spite of my best laid plans, to where I need to end up - usually a fantastical, dreamlike, never-was landscape, but sometimes a shape, a mood, a character or figure.

My returning connection to landscape is not so much to any specific place, but the way that landscape painting can function as a distortion, a metaphor, and a dream.

A CREATIVE MIX:

I work comfortably and happily in watercolor, acrylic, and oil. Sometimes the really bold course involves mixing media in experimental, but effective methods.

A SPACE FOR US:

Whether landscape, figure, or abstract, I chase the ability to capture the space between things – air, light, moisture, fog, and mood.

It’s this liminal space that leaves room for you to make yourself at home, to escape to somewhere more open, meditative, and inspiring.

It’s this space of potential rest and reflection that I hope to communicate and share, where I invite you, the viewer, to join me. Welcome.
