Statement
Much of my work is influenced by my experiences growing up
in the country as part of a close-knit family. Being raised on a farm, I developed an appreciation and respect
of land and nature which inspire my landscape paintings. Other inspiration comes from family memories, and these
stories are often incorporated into my work.
