Nature
My paintings attempt to depict nature with beautiful color values and striking backgrounds, thus my palette is earth-toned, my brush strokes often abstract. Favorite subjects are birds (a personal connection), foxes (because they are wonderfully colored), and trees. I do not have an 'artist statement' as I believe each visual is my statement. *Please press an image for details, or double click for zoom. Swipe for a slide show.
