Between Earth and Sky

Artist Statement

The wonder of nature and the seasons, the weather, the ocean, and the transitions of our beautiful landscape have always been an inspiration for my artwork. I love the vistas and tucked away places I discover along roads less traveled. I am especially moved by those places where air, water and earth meet and those moments when nature blesses us with visual and spiritual images that take our breath away…the rising of the sun, snow flakes falling from the heavens, the crashing of waves during a storm or their soft lapping of the shoreline on a calm summer morning. They remind us of the power and beauty of nature and the importance of appreciating the world around us every day.  May you find joy in both the permanence and transience of Mother Nature.
