Artist Statement

As a landscape oil painter, I am interested in exploring themes of transition and contrast in nature, and capturing often overlooked moments in everyday scenes. For me, painting is a form of meditation and, if I am lucky, an opportunity to witness that fleeting moment between the ordinary and extraordinary.
