Artist Statement:

My work explores the uplifting effect of the landscape on the human experience. With a focus on Ontario, I capture the intimate details and magical atmosphere of our natural surroundings. Nature is paradoxically calming and energizing; I relish the challenge of translating smaller, overlooked details into paintings that celebrate the tranquility and vigour of the outdoors.
