My paintings are metaphorical for relationships found in everyday life. The significant and the trivial are juxtaposed to establish the significance of the relationship between them. Elements that are unimportant to conveying the desired correlation are eliminated – resulting in the minimalistic aspect of my landscapes. My colors are chosen to further establish the relationships and secondly to evoke abstract experiences such as temperature, movement, flow, the smell of fresh cut fields, or the rush of the wind through the fields. My intent has always been to find ways of capturing the most profound sentiments.
