A blue-gray ocean with black cliffs in the background, topped with rolling green hills, small white houses, and a small stone castle.

From a Distance

Acrylic on Wood, 2023

Inspired by the coast of Ireland, this painting contrasts the roaring waves with the tiny houses and castle on the distant cliffs.

 

Different shades of blue form a lake surrounded by trees. A small house sits across the lake with orange light in the windows.

Twilight

Acrylic on Canvas, 2023

The sun had just set over this lake in Maine on a foggy summer evening. This monochromatic study shows how the warm lights in the house across the lake cut through the cool blues of the scene just before nightfall.

Artist Statement

I paint landscapes (real and imagined) that embrace the drama, whimsy, and magic found in nature.
