About The Artwork

"Cloudsong over Blue Ridge" is an impressionistic masterpiece that offers a panoramic view of the iconic Blue Ridge Parkway as it dances through the grandeur of the Blue Ridge Mountains. This painting captures an expansive landscape bathed in the captivating embrace of a cloudy sky. In the foreground, the viewer's eyes are drawn to a well-worn path, rich with colors of the earth. With bold and expressive brush strokes, the artist captures the inviting essence of this path as it weaves through a tapestry of foliage. The foliage on either side of the path is painted with great texture and depth, a cacophony of vibrant colors depicting leaves in various stages of transition. The vermilions, oranges, golds, and greens blend harmoniously, reminiscent of nature's own masterful palette. Moving further into the painting, the middle ground reveals gentle rolling hills blanketed by the brilliant foliage, leading to the commanding Blue Ridge Mountains. The artist’s technique here blends expressionistic colors with impressionistic form, adding an air of romance and nostalgia to the landscape. These hills serve as a connector between the intimate path in the foreground and the majestic mountains that lie beyond. In the background, the Blue Ridge Mountains rise like ancient giants. The artist uses a gradient of blues to create an ethereal mist, suggesting the vastness and mystery of these mountains. With smoother, yet still bold brush strokes, the peaks create a skyline that evokes a sense of timelessness. However, it's the sky that truly captures the imagination. A multitude of cloudy forms dance across the canvas. The artist's sweeping and swirling brush strokes embody the movement and depth of the clouds. The palette is a muted array of grays, whites, and hints of blue; this subtlety contrasts beautifully with the vibrancy of the landscape below, and the expressive manner in which it’s painted conveys the boundless energy of the sky.

My paintings are an intricate weaving of the elements of Impressionist masters like Monet and Post-impressionist artist Van Gogh. Each piece inspired by the vastness, splendor and beauty of nature and the outdoors. Exemplifying the medium’s pure expressive potential to transform the visible world by creating movement using intense complementary colors and layered energetic brush strokes. I desire to create a pictorial symphony that immerses the viewer in a visually stimulating, playful and dreamlike viewing experience. Each landscape focuses on the philosophy to be transformed, uplifted and tap into the subconscious by conveying a sense of comfort for the mind to wander the horizon of the image, reflect and meditate. "I want the unobtainable. Other artists paint a bridge, a house, a boat, and that's the end. They are finished. I want to paint the air which surrounds the bridge, the house, the boat, the beauty of the air in which these objects are located, and that is nothing short of impossible." -Claude Monet “I experience a period of frightening clarity in those moments when nature is so beautiful. I am no longer sure of myself, and the paintings appear as in a dream.” -Vincent Van Gogh
