These paintings are the long cozy drives with the windows down, high overhangs with a view, winding roads that lead to the sky, going back to the place I first learned to camp or make a snowball: roads lining cliffs without guard rails, angry waves that can pull the world with them, and serene walks on the rock covered coast. Each painting was made traditionally and unfolded intuitively – a blend of familiar terrain and invented space – allowing composition, color, light, and experimentation with media to dictate the direction of each piece.
