My parents worked hard to instill a love for the outdoors in their children. We often visited the nearby state parks, the Catoctin Mountains, and various beaches. As a result I have always had a deep loved of nature.

The beauty of the natural world has never ceased to amaze and inspire me. So, it is no surprise that I have often created art based on the beautiful landscapes around me. This influence can be seen in the pieces in this collection as well as many of the others listed on my site.

This group of pieces varies greatly with respect to the materials used, the size, and the treatment of the subject matter. However, each piece portrays my emotional response to my surroundings.

I hope you enjoy viewing these pieces as much as I enjoyed creating them.
