About The Artwork
The work was INSPIRED BY French Impressionist en plein aire artists and my wish for harmony between humanity and nature. I hope VIEWERS will FEEL enchanted by this fantastical scene and love that tree limbs have morphed into human limbs; dark hollows in the tree canopy become people; prosaic leaf-shaped shadows resemble delicate floral patterns found on antique china; the painter’s braid has morphed into a paintbrush, the ferule of which is a winged insect which spreads the hair into a flat brush shape. I hope they will love nature turning into a breathtaking experience. This process gave the painting its title, En Plein Aire. Viewers will be transported by this painting which suggests just how wonderful even a moment in nature is when there is harmony between humanity and nature. FOR THE MEDIUM I chose to paint with acrylic paint which is more versatile than oils. It's natural speedy drying time can be utilized for layering paint and when I want to paint traditionally, I add a retarder to slow down it's drying time so that I can work wet in wet. I also enjoy the beautiful colors o the pigments of Charvin acrylics. The SUBJECT MATTER of harmony between humanity and nature is dear to my heart and is my overarching painting thesis.

United States
As a painter, I am an explorer, uncovering, recording and rearranging the beauty of the natural world, as well as the beauty of human beings. I select and distill the very essence of my subject, harmony between nature and humanity, sometimes combining the two. This symbiosis makes the finished work even more beautiful than either of its constituents alone. When you first visit my fantasy world, you will notice a lot of extraordinary things going on in my paintings. For instance, I might substitute a bird for a hat, or a butterfly for a bowtie. These unusual substitutions function as symbols and provide subtle clues and playful suggestions about my work. The shapes of birds and hats, or butterflies and bowties, are so similar that viewers never even question the replacements. I pick the substitutes because they fit graphically and visually. But it is more than that. We as humans fit with nature. We fit together so well, in fact, that I am able to paint a natural object–a butterfly–in place of the bowtie–and viewers can see this as truth. My world will refresh you with its vibrant colors, textures, and interchangeable shapes as you immerse yourself in the integration of nature and humanity. You will be at peace with yourself and at one with nature. You will experience nature in a totally new way and see beauty in places where you never before thought to look.
