We are all affected by color and my paintings are an attempt to express emotional experience through color. I often find myself returning to the open spaces of land and skyscapes for healing and inspiration. I am also greatly inspired by everyday moments: the beauty of a pear sitting on a windowsill, the expression on a dog’s face as he waits with his owner at the bus stop, an old man lost in the pages of a good book, the way a simple cup of coffee catches the morning light. I want to capture those small moments—the many gestures of happiness, exhaustion, hope, and curiosity that cross one’s face throughout the day, the combinations of color created in certain light—because there is beauty even in the mundane when we stop to notice it.
**** Custom work is available upon request. There is something oddly wonderful that happens in the process of painting for another person. Portraits, pets, landscapes, murals…please contact me with your ideas. I would love to create something for you! ****
