Connect with every wing, every bud, every breath of wind, the light and the dark to feel absolutely alive.

My paintings are a way to reconnect through nature, like a deep breath, that for a moment nothing else matters than the tingling of our senses, absorbing the shifting color of a single petal, the swoop of a wing, the scent of a rose, or simply the circle of light beyond a tunnel of trees. Nature demonstrates over and over the beauty of the cycle of life, each part essential to the other.

I attempt to interpret what is seen and unseen in Nature’s dance of life.

A past life of caring for the dying placed enormous importance for me on appreciating the simple moments that catch our attention and transport us away from the hard parts of our lives, in particular the journey of grief.

It is essential to collect little pockets of joy along the way.
