Talk to me

Rainy Day at Barn, oil, 15×24″

My art explores the mystery and transience of the natural world. I choose colors that best express the passage of time and the impermanence of our environment. In my paintings, representational imagery is juxtaposed with abstract fields of color, as classical structure sits on the edge of abstraction. Mark Rothko, Marsden Hartley, Richard Diebenkorn, Wayne Thiebaud, Frida Kahlo and Janiva Ellis are artists that help to inspire and inform my work.
