Artist Statement - I have been an oil painter for the past twenty two years, painting plein air and in my studio. I enjoy the buttery texture of the paint, the intensity achievable through its colors, and the smell of the slow drying process. Through this medium and a calculated composition, I breathe the life of my subjects onto linen.
I travel extensively to enhance and rejuvenate my vision. I paint both wild and domestic animals, with the goal to extract their connectivity to the human world and share it with the viewer. The animal’s surroundings metamorphosis over time, adapting to the perceptions of the viewer. This mimics the transformation of the landscape altered through wind, water, and time.
