Art has been a part of who I am as far back as I can remember. I enjoy the entire process of painting and creating something. My favorite scenes to paint are water scenes since water is very hard to capture correctly. This is probably also because I love the beach and studying the waves and their colors. I work mainly from photographs I take but I have done a few plein air pieces and plan to do more this spring and summer.
If you are interested in purchasing one of my paintings please contact me directly. Some prices are not listed. Shipping prices vary depending on the size of the painting.
Below is my favorite statement from the poet Rilke that correctly sums up the process of an artists mind.
Being an artist
means, not reckoning and counting,
but ripening like the tree
which does not force its sap
and stands confident
in the storms of spring
without the fear that after them
may come no summer.
Rainer Maria Rilke
