"My paintings—oils and watercolors–are interpretations of natural phenomena.  Water and sky, weather and light, are each work’s elemental ingredients.  They are a result of a search for the magical in nature—the poetic, arcane image found through observation and the act of painting itself.  The Columbia Pacific region inspires my work."
