"Landscape is the universal Truth to which I feel most
connected. I have a palpable need to capture this reality.
Through the depiction of the real, I seek to express the
ineffable and allude to the Truth – a pervasive, invisible
Presence. I rely on sky imagery to initiate this perception, and
I depend on light to dramatize it. My landscapes reference
places of significance, while the arrangements of components
within my paintings imply subtle narratives."
