About my art...
"My paintings are a response to the wild places on the earth. . . Wilderness is where I feel most alive, most connected to the energy of the earth. There are places in the world where that energy is palpable, where we can almost touch the life force surrounding us; places like grand European cathedrals, ancient redwood forests, and snow-covered mountaintops.
Vibrations of the wild places, ancient things, and the people who enjoy them are what I try to capture in my work. Painting is much more than capturing perfectly what something looks like. Rather, my art involves the emotional response to it -- stretching beyond the mere technical and revealing a subject's energy; its indefinable spirit."
"I find earth's magic just outside my window. There are salt marshes, wild palms, and bright sunsets over the water. I look for the purity and delight in children at play, the translucent ghostly reflections of boats in the harbor, and the elusive background colors of the sunshine, seashells, and marshes of my St. Augustine, Florida home.
