On the boatride over to the falls I took note of the shifting currents and blue/green color of the water. It was amazing to see how high the mist rose, towering over the falls themselves. I enjoyed watching everyone jostling for position to get pictures, and watched the excitement grow as we neared the base of the falls.
My art is inspired by nature. I always had a love for the outdoors so it was just natural that my art followed that direction.
I paint both on location and in the studio. My outdoor work is necessary for capturing the different qualities of light and the ever changing moods of nature. My studio work is fed by all the information I get from painting outdoors, except now I have time to think and plan at a more leisurely pace.I head to the outdoors as a stress reliever and that is exactly what my paintings are about-a peaceful retreat from life’s hectic pace.
