I love the landscape and the way the various qualities of light play upon it.
I paint in a realistic style. In my early years I was influenced by my artistic dad and the wonderful 19th century German landscape paintings I saw at the Frye Art Museum in Seattle. Even as a young boy in elementary school, I eagerly anticipated going to see the art. I knew someday I would paint the landscape. A large percentage of my paintings are created on location, "en plein air." Painting outdoors is invigorating to me. I enjoy the solitude; the sights and sounds of the outdoors. I'm driven by the challenge of capturing directly on canvas the essence of what inspires me that I see in God's amazing Creation.
