"Storm Approaching The North Rim" Painting

My inspiration comes from travel in Asia, East Africa, Russia, Antarctica, and extensive travel throughout North America and Europe. I'm drawn to a few subjects in nature that I find perpetually intriguing and my voice is whispering a tribute to the incredible beauty of nature, only touched by the hand of humans on rare occasions. Obsessively drawn to trees, rocks, all forms of water, and animals; I portray these subjects as if they were asking me to reveal their messages to the world. Although my first passion as an artist was photography, I spent over 20 years creating my visions in mixed media fiber art before deciding to concentrate my creative energy on painting and photography. My paintings, photographs, and fiber art are dramatic portraits of Earth and I hope to draw the viewers into these scenes to share the exhilaration I feel and to cherish the wonders of the place we call home.
