Artist Statement
Painting has allowed me to explore the world and see things more openly. From the continually changing warm shades of light to the cold winter marsh mornings, inspiration can always be found. I am at my happiest connecting with my brush and easel, laying down the day’s adventures to canvas. To have a passion that is both beautiful and challenging, allows for a satisfying finish to the day and I can’t imagine being anywhere else.
