 LIGHT

Nature and its beauty have been the inspiration for my work for many years.

Im facinated by the sensuousness of Light.

Fog on Snow

To witness the morning light, the filtered light through the treesand the soft haze of Fog.









To capture natures essence and
communicate it with my painting.
To consciously avoid elaboration,
rather leave a soft mark that allows
the viewer to fill in the rest....






the way fog slowly lifts on a misty morning.

I've been loving and hating the abundance of snow this season,  It's a drag to shovel and drive in this, but just look out the window, it's amazing.   I took a walk in the reservation two weeks ago when it was really foggy.  The translucent white on top of the already white landscape was awe inspiring. The effect made you stand still and feel the presence of nature.  

Here are a couple paintings in progress from that walk...
