Born and raised in the rural mining town of Superior, Arizona, having a dad who was a geologist, and in a family that camped all over the country, instilled in me, a real love for the natural world. Painting landscapes, plein- air has been a perfect fit. The natural world that we have around us is changing rapidly, being paved over so quickly that open land will become something the old-timers talk about. Even man-made buildings that have history and meaning are being torn down for “new, better”. The inherent beauty of our land is sometimes allusive to the traveler moving down the freeway at high speed. All of this really fuels the fire in me to paint what I see and what I am drawn to. If I can capture a little piece of time, space, light, and atmosphere, maybe the viewer can see what he has been missing. Paintings are like little windows of the world, they pale (no matter how good the painter) in comparison to Gods handwork, but can give us a reminder, a memory of places we have been, or of people we love.
