Landscape is a peaceful concept for me, thus much of the line I use is rolling, undulating line, the restful curve, the mildly exhilarating swoop. I was born and lived most of my life among the rolling hills of Northern California. The area's land speaks powerfully to me and I hope through me. As my paintings are more about something than they are of it, I feel free to abstract what I see, to imply motion and to push colors, all to the end of laying out what I feel about our glorious landscape.
