I have a deep love for the outdoors and experiencing nature.  I experience nature not for what it is, but for how it makes me feel, the emotional reaction and connection.  This is what I am trying to capture in all of my work.  The moment of wonder and deep emotional reaction one can experience when exploring the natural world.  There are truths in these moments. 

​

  My work varies between loose, impressionistic oil paintings to vibrant non-representational abstracts.  I allow the subject, along with introspection, dictate how I represent each moment using a variety of styles, mediums and techniques.  Regardless of style, texture is a key component in all of my work.  The texture used in my work is directly tied to how I experience the subject I am exploring.  Sometimes, the texture is bold and aggressive or other times it is subtle brush strokes, regardless every detail of texture is used convey feeling and emotion to create unique one-of-a-kind pieces of art.
