"Unexpected Guest" Painting

I often capture the landscape and atmosphere in natural light when I'm painting plein air. I also enjoy still life painting which on the other hand, involves arranging objects in a specific composition allowing me to control the light in my studio. Both allow me to express my creativity in capturing light and color.  To express my ideas and thoughts, I use oil paints. Drawing and painting are my way of satisfying a deep feeling of expression within myself. I feel it is my way of being heard in a noisy world. Whether I am in the studio or out in the field, I find solace and escape into my own world of whatever I create it to be. I love creating still life, landscapes, wildlife, all kinds of genre. I paint in oils and like to draw. Now that I'm in an area of good year-round weather, I've been painting outdoors, plein air as well as in my studio. I've sold hundreds of paintings to collectors all over the world I even have an artwork sailing around on a cruise ship. I cherish all my patrons and hope each get a lot of enjoyment year after year each time they pass the wall they are hanging.
