There is an immediate pull to the winding turquoise path in Forest Fandango, sheltered by the broad branches and long, cool shadows of the striking tree in the foreground. Stippled flecks of magenta and fresh green bring the forest floor alive underfoot, set against the quiet depth of the woods behind. It carries a lively, joyful pulse—the feeling of stepping into a woodland trail that is humming with hidden life and color.

It's hard not to be inspired by nature. I'm always looking for that next scene to paint, noticing how a place makes me feel, looking at light and shadow, taking photos, and capturing that feeling on the canvas. And, of course, always seeing everything in full, vibrant color.
