STATEMENT
​
The purpose of my work is to capture the feeling or the spirit of the animal with a simple glance. I’m driven by understanding wildlife’s natural beauty and how the simplicity of one brush stoke can depict that.
I can often be found in a bar ditch in Texas, photographing my next subject on the other side of the barbed wire fence or climbing down a cliff in New Mexico. I am passionate about painting animals in a bold brush style, while also betraying the softer side of wildlife.
My art is continuously evolving after my travels and research. I thrive on excelling, research and understanding the history of the master artist while adding my own style. Every painting I paint teaches me something, either about art or the animal, and what a gift both can be. My goal for myself and my students are to make a breath-taking piece of art.
