Artist Statement:

With a passion for color and a love of light, I create landscapes that transcend reality. I combine impressions from actual scenes with modified sketches to make personal images that highlights the atmospheric aspect of nature. Although nature is an inexhaustible source of inspiration, my artwork is an interpretation, not representation of nature.

Technique:

I work with a variety of media to create my paintings. This involves oil paint, oil pastels and solvents. The surface is a coarse canvas that enhances the overall texture of The finished artwork. After the work is complete the painting is coated with spray varnish To make it possible to frame the artwork without glass.
