Artist's Statement

I have always been drawn to the intimate details of nature-the delicate flower, the intricate leaf, the majestic tree-and I try to infuse my paintings with their simple beauty. I want the observer to discover with me the subtle hue of a autumn leaf or the translucent character of a flower petal.

My landscapes are not intended to be grand in scale, but rather intimate and personal. I want them to beckon you, the viewer, to feel the warmth of the sun or the cool of the dappled shade. I paint what I love: the rich simplicity of a quiet life lived here in Nebraska.
