Abstraction As a painter, abstraction is the language of emotion and astounding energy. Using color and brushwork… thus inviting the viewer to explore, imagine and discover.

Why Plein Air? Why paint when the light and objects quickly change? Why outside? Is it the unexpected? The colors that vibrate; the vistas full of sunlight or shadows of passing clouds? The chance sighting of a falcon overhead or a deer wandering quietly nearby. All become treasured memories to share and music for the eyes.
