Warm and atmospheric, these watercolor paintings would never be mistaken for ordinary landscapes. Soft organic forms rise and fall, suggesting layers of sediment, stone, sky, and water. In one painting, a patchwork of vivid color gives way to subtle petroglyphs; in another, a luminous orb traverses an otherwise placid landscape. The shapes that permeate these pieces evoke the undulating rhythm of hills as much as they do the curvature of human bodies, producing an effect both expansive and intimate. “When my mind grows quiet, I find myself listening to the primal voice of the natural world. In my studio I search for a visual language that connects to emotion and feeling. The voice I try to bring to a painting is about how the land has intersected with my being, creating well worn paths, becoming a part of me.”
