I
am a plein air painter. I enjoy painting out of doors. I have combined
my passion for nature with my enthusiasm for painting. Being there and
being a part of the changing landscape is a major part of the process.
I take my easel to the grassy hillsides or rocky bluffs over the ocean
and paint in the sun, the fog, and the wind. In a sense I am a conservationist.
I attempt to capture on the canvas the beauty and wonder of the natural
world at a particular moment in time. I am an impressionist and a colorist.
I work with oil paint. I invoke sun and shadow using thick paint and
intense color. I also do figurative work, painting models, friends,
and people and animals encountered in the field.
