My purpose as an artist is to express the healing power of the natural world and to encourage others to do the same. Nature is alive and infused with spirit. It beckons us to return from our world of noisy distractions and be restored. I constantly seek to reconnect with this spirit of earth, sea, and sky through creating art. My goal is to transcend literal representation and express the spirit and spark of life in nature and living things. I see myself not as an imitator of the natural world, but an interpreter of it. My painting technique involves simplification, abstraction, soft edges, and attention to patterns and shapes to create an impression of what I saw and felt. My art is a way to share my connection with the healing power of nature and wild places with whoever stops to look.
