Artist's Statement

I am drawn to raw areas that have been preserved from excessive development. I am at peace in the untamed wilderness. I am inspired by the life force that connects all things.

I travel consistently to fuel my desire to create. My subjects present themselves to me and I am captivated by their essence and compelled to share the intimate experience. My work is the result of 22 years of commitment to observation of my surroundings; it is energy transferred through color.

I am represented by RARE Gallery, Jackson, Cody Fine Art Gallery, Cody, Wy. Windrush Gallery, Sedona, AZ., and Hanson Gallery, Honesdale, PA.

I am associated with American Society of Bovine Artists, American Plains Artists, Western Art Association, and Daily Painters of Pennsylvania. My work has been featured at The New Mexico Farm and Ranch Heritage Museum, Las Cruces, NM, Dutot Museum, Delaware Water Gap, Pa. Greater Plains Art Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska, State Museum of Pennsylvania, Harrisburg, PA., Hunterdon Art Museum, Clinton, NJ., Everhart Museum, Scranton, PA, Monmouth Museum, Lincroft NJ, Allentown Art Museum, PA.
