Love and respect for nature inspires much of my artistic expression. The images in the galleries are primarily
derived from observations of nature. The intent though is not to copy nature. Rather, I try to perceive the world
clearly and intently with a heightened sense of awareness and thereby perhaps even understand
the spirit of nature.
Original sketches and observations are altered and refined in the studio. Composition, form, color, light
and brushwork become the focus as opposed to a literal descriptions of time or place.
I work in variety of media: watercolor, drawing, photography, digital and mixed media.
I am a member of number of art organizations:
NEMAA, Minnesota Atist's Association, Minnesota Watercolor Society, White Bear Center for the Arts
I have been accepted into many juried exhibitions and have won several awards.
I accept commissions. The images below are samples.
