The inspiration for most of my work comes from the forms, colors, and patterns of the natural environment. I am constantly stalking the evocative photograph, whether near home,

hiking, or traveling. I am looking for those strong images that will become the basis for my digital transformations.

Once I start altering and combining the images I aim to highlight abstract patterns often unnoticed in reality. I also work with the interplay of colors. Color makes me salivate. My work is an exploration of color itself and how colors speak to each other. The result is a landscape impression where reality takes on a sense of mystery but communicates the beauty of the experience.

Printing my digital paintings on cloth allows me to take advantage of the textures and light reflectance variations of different kinds of fabrics.
