Painting one dream at a time and anything pulls on my soul!

The breathtaking Colorado wilderness ignites my creativity, serving as an endless wellspring of inspiration. My art is a passionate exploration of nature's grand spectacle – from blazing sunsets and shimmering aspens to soaring ravens and noble wild horses. Each piece I create is born from a profound emotional connection to these awe-inspiring elements, capturing fleeting moments of beauty that speak to the soul.

Acrylic is my primary medium, allowing me to breathe life into my paintings through bold strokes and rich textures. My style has evolved to emphasize the interplay of light and color, a technique I've developed to vividly capture the spirit of Colorado's diverse landscapes. Whether depicting the fiery palette of a mountain sunset or the graceful lines of a fox in motion, I strive to convey not just the visual, but the emotional essence of each scene.

Recently, I've embraced the challenge of reverse painting on glass. This meticulous technique requires envisioning the final image and working backwards, carefully layering colors from foreground to background. It's a process that demands precision, foresight, and a deep understanding of how pigments interact – pushing me to grow as an artist and explore new dimensions in my work.

When not in the studio, I find inspiration on Colorado's trails – running, mountain biking, or simply soaking in the natural world. These experiences, along with the unwavering support of my family and friends, fuel my creative spirit. I've also taken up the violin, finding that music often informs my visual art in unexpected ways.

Through my work, I aim to awaken viewers' sense of wonder for the natural world. Each piece is an invitation to pause, to reconnect with the extraordinary beauty that surrounds us daily. It's my hope that my art not only captures the visual majesty of Colorado but also inspires a deeper appreciation for our environment and our place within it.

I invite you to explore my online gallery and experience the Colorado wilderness through my eyes. Perhaps you'll rediscover a favorite landscape or find a new perspective on a familiar scene. Let's celebrate the enduring beauty of nature together.
