Sample of works made in 2019

< Back to Portfolio

Working from only memory, intuition, and my imagination I create landscape paintings that combine a fresh image within a familiar presentation. Working within the romantic landscape tradition, I consider how this artistic style of work speaks from a distant perspective in the current moment.

Each work acts as a visita as I navigate through my creative thought process.
