Edmonds, Washington
” I am awestruck by the beauty and diversity of the Northwest. I see the fingerprints of a creative God all around me — from the last glow of golden light on a mountain to the sparkle of a meandering meadow stream. This inspires me to try to capture an essence of a scene or moment in time, and share that with others.”

“As an artist, I can’t wait to get up in the morning to paint. My wife and I travel extensively, and I always try to sneak in a few hours of painting. My work is filled with color, and energetic brushwork as I strive to capture the essence of a place. Field studies are the basis for creating larger and more designed work in the studio. Collectors often comment that I have tapped into their special memories of a place that makes them happy.”
