Artist Statement
Having a personal connection with the subjects I paint is important because it adds an element of authenticity to my work. Painting subjects from life outdoors, en plein air, as often as possible, brings me great joy. When I am not able to paint a subject from direct observation, I work in my studio from my own studies, sketches, or photographs. Color harmony is also important to me and I enjoy the challenge of working with a limited palate. Mixing my own colors as I paint en plein air or alla prima in my studio helps me approach this aspect of painting in ways that are not possible with a more expansive palate.
