Artist Statement:

I paint the places that make me feel the sense of home, sunlit paths through quiet woods, the hush of evening, the glow of light through a forest of trees.  My inspiration comes from wandering beneath a cathedral of trees, where light dances and my soul listens.

Through layers of mixed media and oils,  I aim to create soulful, atmospheric landscapes that feel both earthly and otherworldly. My paintings are sanctuaries for the soul, places where light speaks, and wonder lingers.
