My painting practice concerns itself with the beauty of the human spirit as it turns to nature for
renewal: intimate narratives, suspended in time, contemplate the land and our deep
connection to nature. It is a continual discovery that reflects the intricacies of collective moments, memories, connections to place, and the inherent poetry of the land. The perfume of a flower, the touch of fabric, the changing of the seasons or the sound of music, can elicit in each one of us a sense of connection to a specific place, moment in time, or loved one. This relies upon an intricate relationship between place, memory, and imagination.
