Artist’s Statement
In my artwork I strive to capture and convey the magical balance between serenity and visual excitement found in nature. My paintings, drawings, and photography are intended to be a calming balm in chaotic world, much like a walk in the woods or on the beach. The Japanese promote Forest Bathing, walking in the woods taking in the peaceful sites, smells, and sounds, as a way of calming the senses and reducing anxiety. I suggest Art Bathing as a way of bringing the benefit of being in nature into your home.
