About the Item

My works give the viewer the sense of flying through them, hovering, as the earth shifts in subtle twists and turns. This slightly unsettling vantage point merges with vivid color, pattern and deep space to create a view of a world filled with light, hope and resurgence. Recently, after years spent exploring the Italian landscape, I have begun a much-needed search for tangible beauty in our own country. I did a series of oil pastel drawings en plein air while on a western road trip summer 2019. These drawings done in the desert and on the side of roads in 100 degree heat are the basis for my studio paintings I am making in an 1850s barn in upstate NY for my American Beauty series. In these times of environmental and societal devastation, I consider it a political act to immerse myself in the landscape to record the natural beauty lurking there: perhaps to incite the arousal of sentiment, a stirring of connectedness.
