I find joy: in children, when they don’t know you’re watching; in contradictions that tell a story; in bright colors and in subtle hues; in the reassuring peacefulness of rolling green hills and in the startling drama of snow-covered mountain peaks.  I’m excited by visits to new places and I love the familiarity of my own back yard.  I enjoy the precision of unrelenting straight lines and the effect of wind on a gesticulating landscape.  Using a variety of media, I paint it all.   It is my hope that my artwork will inspire you to share my joy in the world… ‘as I see it.’
