Mankind has altered and changed much of the view of our planet. Pollution, clear cutting and industrialization are evident in some of the paintings and the titles also reflect my own opinions on our “process of change.”
Sway
Maya Angelou said something like ” If you don’t like something, change it. If you can’t change it, change the way you think about it.” Powerful stuff. So I changed they way I thought about myself. I let myself take risks, go down paths I was unsure of, tried new things, stopped doing things that were not helpful ( comparison is the death of joy) and painted whatever I wanted to paint.
California Dreaming
As a landscape painter, I find the varied terrain in the western US quite inspirational. The beauty of California particularly touches my heart and soul – from the verdant hills of the wine country to the majestic coastline.
