In my paintings you’ll always find a sense of space to get lost in and a couple wanderers that will entice you to join them on their journey into the brilliance of nature. They roam across the land where they experience a presence that seems to share a universal pulse with them, posing the question, do we experience the environment from the outside looking in, or are we innately part of this infinite system? As they travel further and further the truth becomes clear: something that once seemed separate from us has always been deeply connected.
From describing form and light with small strokes to creating ambiguous spaces with broad and untamed washes, I explore a variety of mark-making techniques to create scenes that attribute a consciousness to nature and allude to a harmony between the wanderers and their environment. The titles reinforce this personification of nature and the interaction between creature and landscape, encouraging the viewer to consider their own relationship with the outside world.
