The Artist

Early in my childhood I dreamt of building wonderful cities. Tall needle spires of glass and metallic surfaces which gleamed in the sun. As I matured, my passion shifted to the splendor of nature. I remain drawn to how sunlight transforms the world around us. In the muted sunlight of the early morning, a soft mist is visible rising out of a newly plowed field. Or, how a tight shaft of light sparkles against a cocoon.

My medium of choice is watercolor. Watercolor’s transparent quality allows me to play with the sunlight, and create vibrant photo-realistic paintings. I am a purest. I use just the surface of the paper to create white. I employ distilled water to limit any impurities which may impact the color. My Giclée’s are superior not only in their detail, but the inks are eco-friendly, paper is green, and renewable.

I am in awe, and constantly fascinated on the splendor of the world around us. I am equally comfortable creating landscapes or macro up close images. I strive to create paintings which emulate my passion for all stages of life found in nature. Be that the new green of spring, or the bright colors of fall. I hope, whomever views my work, will share in my awe and fascination of the complexity and beauty of the world all around us.
