About the Artist

I am an Impressionistic artist that focuses on light and color- BOLD COLOR. Having spent much of my life hunting and fishing I have been inspired and awed by nature. Seeing the interaction of first light on a morning sunrise and the last light at sunset and the interplay of colors on clouds and the land, is both marvelous and humbling. Through the use of oils, painting landscapes “plein air” and through my own photos has given me a way of sharing  those thoughts and feelings with others. Creating a good painting is some of the hardest work I have ever done, but when you finally get it right it is some of the most rewarding work there is. A writer tells his story with words, a pen and paper. As an artist I try to tell my story with oils, brushes and canvas. I hope you enjoy my “story” as much as I have writing it !
