Painting isn't just what I do, it's who I am and how I connect with the natural world. Most of my paintings feature representational and abstracted landscapes. My style involves taking elements I observe in nature and breaking them down in to shapes and patterns, combining both representational and abstracted features to create dynamic and unexpected results. I also love to plein air paint which is more observational and reprentative of what I actually see. I enjoy teaching workshops and have taught in locations across the US and abroad.
