Artist's Statement
Direct observation is at the core of all of my painting. When I am struck by something my impulse is to describe it in paint. I want to study its tangible and intangible qualities, and to notice something that perhaps was thought too banal for consideration. I find that given time, most things reveal themselves as perfect, just as they are. Observing and translating my vision, thoughts and feelings into paint is how I have come to reconcile my desire to paint with my insatiable love of the outdoors. If beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder, then it is my hope that when others look at my paintings they too may recall their own unguarded moments with nature and delight in a tender tribute to the ordinary.
