My work lives at the intersection of two basic themes: mindfulness and connection with nature. The paintings are meditations on the role natural silence plays in personal well-being. Over the past several years I have been re-forging my connection with nature through spending time in wild places and reflecting back on those experiences through painting. The goal of my work is to create a space that is quiet – but also rich with emotion and memory. Its imagery comes from time I've spent in beautiful spaces, like Northern MN, Lake Superior, Big Blue, Wind River Range, Chaco Canyon, the Cascades, and Botswana.
I build up color on wet canvas brushing small amounts of acrylic paint with thinning agents, matte, and other acrylic media. The resulting richness, subtlety, and depth of color pushes the limitations of acrylic media.
