Trying to capture a glimpse of the world around me in paint has intrigued me since I was 9. It has led me to explore the techniques of oil, pastel, acrylic and watercolor mediums. My goal is to capture a piece of the spontaneous dance of light across the palette of nature.

Light is the motivating factor, without it there would be nothing. Working very closely with nature en plein air (on location) has led to a much greater appreciation of the natural world. It inspires me to get in touch with the moment, allowing me time for detailed studies of things.
