Contemporary painting directly from nature with feeling.

As a plein air artist I paint directly from nature, using thick, juicy oil paint, and a heightened sense of color. The changing light, wind, and  wildlife make this a dynamic experience​ for me as I express my emotions and nature's energy with color, texture, and brushstrokes. ​
