Artist Statement:
Artist Statement,
My current paintings of
simple landscapes reveal
abstract and representational
components in the composition.
Using a variety of tools,
droppers, pipettes, and
brushes, I build layers of
abstract spattered subtext. I
find beauty in the forms of
the landscape.
The land has always been
integral in my exploration of
line, color, and form. The
land inspires art. My interest
in fly-fishing, hiking, and
camping inspire my images,
taking me places wild fish
live. I find the landscape a
beautiful challenge.
With my current process
evolving, discoveries present
themselves with each new
work, never a tired topic. A
traditional subject depicted
in a contemporary way.
