Artist Statement
My love of the outdoors inspires me to hike and paint, creating love letters to nature. My goal is to capture light and energy of these moments and share them through an impressionistic style paintings, using a combination of palette knife and brushwork. Connecting with nature through art provides a reminder that beauty is all around us and meant to be respected and preserved.
