My art is my most genuine effort to bring you back to the places I love, so the beauty I see doesn’t just end with me. I paint in a way that what you see, makes you feel that you are in that moment. Present. Right there with me.

ARTIST STATEMENT
"Late Spring Hike" 48 x 60 in.
I love that feeling of hiking in the mountains during a bright blue sky day, when you are deep into the forest on that trail and you look to your side (in this case your left side as you are found going down the trail) and you see the sun peeking through the trees. Like a glowing beam of light that comes and goes as you move along.Playing hide and seek with you. Is somewhere around 10:30 am on this painting. The only noise I can hear is the leafs blowing with the breeze, the birds singing and some stream running somewhere near me. Ahhh the mountains are so refreshing. I happen to find myself too often on lost trails, way out there, with nobody near by, only to find again the voice of God. And is so good every time. And it only leaves me wanting
