HOME
I have had a great time over the years gathering
inspiration and material.
I am inspired to create images by observations
made in nature .
Most of my Photo's have been taken on my
explorations in and around the National parks in
California, Montana and Wyoming.
I love to be outside and frequently will be found
hiking in the National parks. Although in recent
years, I have been primarily a painter, I recently
decided to include many of my photo's in my body of
work.
Though they were taken to be studies to paint from, I feel they are beautiful stand alone
piece's themselves.
So I have doubled my potential body of work.
I am influenced by the expressionist/impressionist school and I love colour and texture.
I frequently use a palette knife even where most would not, for example on a small
canvas.
Some of my canvases are of unusual size . Many are quite large.
Primarily my photographs, since 2002, are high quality digital.
At this time my photographs are limited in size. My original photo's are usually 8 x 10 or
8.5x 11 because of printer limitations. However, my digital files will support much larger
prints and many are currently available at Art.com's POD.as a poster.
I will be constantly updating this site. My paintings as well as most of the photographic
images will be for sale. I hope they will be appreiciated.
I feel that Art speaks for it self and each person
brings to the work their own perspective and
experiences.
I don't tell the viewer what to think or feel about
my work. I feel that art has it's own life and
narrative .
