The Artist

"The landscape, animals, and atmosphere of the west has always been inspiring- not only for exploring, but as a means of bringing drama and beauty to my painting. I strive to capture the mood, individual personality, and movement of my subjects through exploration of color, composition, and the use of positive and negative space in my work. I hope to draw the viewer into my paintings and give them a sense of my inspiration for each piece of work, and a window into the world I see and experience. Through my work I hope to engender an appreciation of wildlife and wild places. Going out into nature and seeing animals and their behavior in their native environments recharges my creative energy and makes me eager to get back to my studio and portray what I have
