This site represents a sampling of the landscapes that I have created over the past ten years.
My earlier works are in Pastel. With a sense of urgency and color at my fingertips, pastels allowed me to navigate through the fundamentals of shape, color, and light, and allowed me to move quickly with my understanding of form.
Working in Oils has taken me to a new level. It has magnified my senses and has become the foundation of the Impressionistic style you will see on these pages. These recent paintings embody movement and richness of color.
Whether working en plein air or in my studio, doing landscapes of Northern California or of Southern France, my paintings represent the awe I feel in these beautiful surroundings at any given moment.
I've been fortunate to have studied with some great teachers and to work with many devoted students. My craft was shaped by my encounters with each one.
On this site you will also see a collection of Still Life paintings and a few of my Triptychs. Please check out my new work, Hot off the Easel. And in the Events page you will find upcoming and current events, plus information about My New Book.
