STATEMENT
“In the warmth of natural light, I treat each painting as a diary entry that shares moods of the moment and reflections of the world around me. My practice relies on intuition, trust, and mixing color. Paying close attention to what calls to me, I’m intentional about the way I use oils to paint motifs from nature, and also use imagination as an ever-growing bank of imagery I reference in my work.”
