A Few Favourites
Thanks for visiting. Let me tell you a bit about my work. My work focuses on the changeable relationship we have with nature. Loving and destroying in the same breath. The darkness of the human psyche underlies many of my overtly positive and uplifting nature scenes. Oceans and forests are idealized, radiating an inner light that burns. This heightened effect corresponds to our own yearning for more, wanting to be at one with nature, to control it, to be moved by it, to tame it. This quote by philosopher Alan W. Watts captures my thinking:You didn't come into this world. You came out of it, like a wave from the ocean. You are not a stranger here.' These mixed media paintings blur the lines of photography and painting, realism and experience.
