All of my work emanates from my constant attention and visceral connection to the natural world. Paintings, oil on panel, are spare evocations of time spent at the sea. Drawing satisfies my compulsion for keen looking and dogged mark making: one perpetual series documents local artists, another is "Pull of the Sea", eight foot drawings of swimmers and surfers, and another is an ongoing investigation & documentation of crows, rattlers, and octopuses in charcoal on vellum and vintage maps.
