Artist statement:
Born in Washington DC, I grew up in the Virginia countryside. Steeped in beauty, this is where my visionary life began. My education was gathered from museums around the world. I am a folklorist of nature’s mythology. Each painting is a ballad or sometimes a puzzle or riddle from the cosmos. From this I paint.

Now nestled in Appalachia, I work to chronicle the sagas unfolding around me. From my humming bees to the spring bulls frolicking in the fields, I paint.

This show will be an exploration of the natural world that is happening all around us.
