Artist Statement
My art practice is inspired by land and sea explorations from the Arctic Circle to the Great Barrier Reef. Blue water sailing and hiking across various landscapes has provided the palette and motivation to expand and abstract these vistas. As an oil, acrylic and casein painter, I work with natural ground pigments on wood, canvas and washi paper. My work focuses on presenting colors, textures and unusual perspectives in abstract land & seascapes.
