My goal is to create simplified images that are visually striking, through unusual perspective, color use, or lighting. I tend to focus on the small and often overlooked, rather than the grand vista. I'm attracted to weeds in sidewalk cracks, backlit grasses, sun on water, bright Fall leaves against rocks and tree trunks, or a hidden petroglyph.
On hikes (which are actually meandering walks poking around in the dirt), I take a lot of digital pictures to use as photo reference. I will also just make things up for a painting. I live in Carver, Oregon and Moab, Utah, and these very different environments are reflected in my subject matter.
All of the work shown on this Web Page are Acrylic or Watercolor.
Painting size given is the inside dimension, and does not includes frame size.
