"Amaranth at Golden Hour"

Original Oil on Canvas, 36” x 54”

This painting was the centerpiece of my most recent body of work entitled “The Nature of Shadows.” By observing nature, it’s easy to see that shadows and light move together in harmony. They don’t exist separately. However, as a lived experience, holding both our light and our darkness can feel impossible at times. What I’ve learned is that we only need to step out of the darkness for a moment to see that the reason there is a shadow in the first place is because there is a bigger source of light nearby. It is only because of love, that loss feels so heavy. It is only because of hope, that disappointment strikes so hard. The truth is, it is the brightness of our light that makes our shadows seem so dark.

INSPIRATION FOR MY ARTWORK

My journey as a painter taught me to find beauty in everything. When you truly look, beauty reveals itself in the details.

My art invites you to pause and see what you might overlook. I hope that after experiencing my work, you’ll notice the simple wonders around you: the glow of light through leaves, the graceful shapes in nature’s dance. Beauty is always within reach, waiting to be seen."

ORIGINAL OIL PAINTINGS

An original painting is the most unique creation I have to offer. My oil paintings reflect decades of dedicated practice in my craft, each one a one-of-a-kind piece that will distinguish you as a discerning collector and patron of fine art. These botanical pieces, in particular, represent my evolution as a classically trained painter—bringing the skills I’ve honed painting the human figure into my renderings of nature. Owning an original oil painting places you among a select class of art lovers and adds meaningful artistic value to your home. These paintings are created from my peak artistic experience and represent my highest work.


 

PAINTING PROCESS

Every painting is born from time spent in nature. I spend time with the plants, sit with them, photograph them, and then begin painting them. My paintings are always started out in nature, before I bring them back to my studio to finish creating them.


 

IN THE STUDIO

My painting process is meditative and quiet. I fall into it like it’s a cozy blanket. Long hours with only my canvas and brushes for company melt away as I lose myself (and find myself again) in the creation process.
