Plein Air Expressionism
​        Painting directly from nature with feeling.

I paint directly from nature with thick, juicy oil paint, and a heightened sense of color. Changing light, wind, and  wildlife make this a dynamic experience​ as I capture the energy of a place and my own emotions with color, texture and brushstrokes.

I love nothing more than exploring new places that are wild and watery. I live and paint in the Southeast but also love to paint anywhere that my truck, canoe, kayak, and brushes take me.
