Artist Statement

Some of the most spiritual and reflective moments of my life happen when I am in nature. Whether it is hiking up a mountain or kayaking along a river, my paintings are created from those experiences or pulled from my childhood memories where I enjoyed long days exploring the woods behind my grandma's house. My paintings reflect the beauty, spirituality and nostalgia that I find in everyday ordinary objects. My hopes are that by slowing down and looking deeply the viewer will see not only the underlying beauty but that on a deeper lever we are all connected.
