About
I live and work in central California, drawing inspiration from landscapes throughout the pacific rim. Any theme I pursue in a series of work stems originally from outdoor observational painting, but I embrace the distortions and exaggerations introduced by working from memory and limited source materials. In larger compositions I interpret and emphasize visual details from my encounters with nature in order to communicate the complexity of natural systems beyond their cursory picturesque value.
