"I paint the landscape and my surroundings in the tradition of many artists that came before me. I simply possess the undeniable need to paint and express my feelings of joy I get from it. I can't "not" do it. It is a force that feeds my inner spirit.

"I want to speak to your heart with the language of a painting using the dialogue of brushstrokes, light, color, and texture.

"I only hope to share with you the beauty I see in the grandeur of nature and the simpliciy of the profound - to celebrate life."

Join me as we witness the dance of light
on the trees and leaves in the breeze,
the bubbly laughter and the sparkle on a stream,
the solemn sigh on the mist of a foggy morning,
the whisper of a lullaby as the petals of a flower unfold,
the mountain's majestic symphony of life as it is cast before you,
the medley of a frolicking doe and fawn as they bound across your path,
the loud chord that pounds in your heart when the sunlight strikes up on the canyon wall,
the crackles of lightning as the wave's luminescent crest spills over
and the thunder as it crashes to shore.
It is the orchestra of light and darkness that unveils itself in the song of everyday life.

I believe that art provides inspiration to the human spirt — a sense of being and solace.
