I am interested in the landscape and in conveying my sense of a place through simplifying and abstracting from natural and manmade forms and finding their rhythms. Looking at the landscape from different perspectives—up at the sky, through the branches of trees, or down at the mountains below—leads me to explore patterns of shape and color. I am especially interested in trees and their interconnectedness, and I have created a substantial body of work exploring their relationships.
I make sketches and take photographs on-site as a basis for working in the studio and finding variations on a theme to create a series of works. I use paper or board as my support and am interested in the effects of different media on the smooth surface. I am interested in different media, and I layer acrylic with charcoal, ink, or crayon; gouache with watercolor or pencil; and acrylic paint with collage, using the opaque or transparent qualities of the media to create the pattern and rhythm of each individual work.Visit their website

"Art has become my vehicle to route my perception of the world. Everyday life interactions allow me to connect my creative energy with visual notions. As the founder and owner of Thank You, Art; I enjoy discovering different mediums. I have fallen deeply in love with texture art, figure art, and abstract expressionism. Texture art permits me to connect with each sense human beings use. Figure art allows to see human beings at their most vulnerable and neutral state. Abstract Expression gives me the freedom to transfer feelings into vivid colors. My art is the translation of optical attraction and emotion. Each one of my creations have an emotional intelligence. Feel, think, wonder, and touch are the emotional end result of each of piece. My creative intent is developing artistic concepts that promote peaceful ambience. Thank you for taking a moment to view my artwork."
