Nature's beauty continues to amaze and inspire me. Even just a peek into our own backyard can yield a moment of reprieve from our hectic lives. Through my paintings of landscape, wildlife, and still life, it is my desire to help all of us take more moments to appreciate our natural surroundings outdoors and take in what it all has to offer: peace, beauty, restfulness, an awareness of the nuances in nature, an awareness of the exquisiteness of a landscape painting or a depiction of wildlife through oils and pastels.
