There are places that hold such beauty people literally gasp at the sight. Other locations have qualities that speak only to the beholder. In my paintings I try to capture the moment that made me take a second look. It is my desire to convey as much of that initial emotion in a scene as is possible without seeming heavy handed or saccharin. I truly hope to help others see and appreciate a sunrise, the restorative qualities of the ocean, or devotion in the eyes of a beloved pet. I have been blessed to have grown up in North Carolina, a place like no other. Time spent painting in nature is a gift for which I am thankful..
