Artist’s Statement

In following the path of creative experimentation, I continue to be influenced by elements of the natural world, whether observing the exquisite color of a delicate wildflower, silver moonlight in the winter woods, a brown frog in the forest duff, soft white gossamer mists rising from the river, the contours of distant mountains, or vast terrestrial vistas in their ever changing tapestry of seasonal colors. It is my fix. It underlies my being.

Over the years, through applied study and serendipitous discovery, I have continued to search for ways to express and share my feelings about these wondrous elements, of their importance and possible demise - elements upon which future survival of the remaining wildlife, indigenous peoples and, indeed, all of us depend.

Art, in all its forms, stands as the “non-written word" for meaningful conveyance of messages. I seek to add my voice as a reminder about those things which we so easily take for granted.
