Being outside and experiencing nature is where my paintings begin. The sense of peace and mystery in the sublime complexity of the places I visit are with me in the studio. The paintings in essence become meditations on the natural world, which I hope to convey my deep awe and respect for. I like to think of my work as a place where careful observations of the natural world and inner vision meet.
