I love Nature and the beauty that surrounds us everywhere.  Whether I am doing a portrait, or landscape I try to bring to life what I see and feel.  I do my work for the pleasure it brings both to myself, and those who view it.

 

  Although I live in Central New York, I grew up in Northwest Montana and loved being close to the untouched land and wildlife found in the Rockies.  I try to bring some of that to the homes of those who buy my work.  I hope to inspire them to go out and see the treasures we have in our land for themselves.
