In my landscape paintings I explore the remarkable repetition of natural forms across scales, where the tiny mirrors the massive. In my work, a small dried leaf evokes the vastness of a rolling landscape, while a single upright leaf shifts in scale to become a monumental cliff.

My Shields paintings use the shield as a metaphor for protection. Some draw on the scale, form, and central boss of Viking shields, while others evolve into more abstract constructions. Built from imagery of natural materials in various stages of growth and decay, these works explore the tension between our desire for security and the impermanence of the natural world. Protection is never fixed or absolute; like nature itself, it is constantly changing, adapting, and ultimately transient.

My creature paintings transform decaying natural debris into vibrant, animate beings. I look closely at the twisting, drying forms of fallen leaves and twigs, finding hidden movement within the forms that emerge from the decaying process. Dry static forms transform into living breathing creatures.

In small works you will find paintings that are 12” x 12” in size or smaller. The imagery of these paintings are a mixture of themes from all my categories of larger work but there is an immediacy and simplicity to these smaller works.
