Artist Statement
I am a painter of rivers.
The higher the elevation, the more exciting the river flows. This inspires me to study and capture the moment, then paint its essence.
I photograph these experiences for reference. I may take several dozen photos and multiple videos so I can listen to the water and review movements between rocks.
I work with acrylics on canvas and have perfected the technique for transparency, typical in watery scenes.
I enjoy strong rocky compositions combined with soft, swirling, watery shapes. These interesting shapes and reflections, frequently find their way into my river series.
