I continue to paint directly from life, studying and relishing all the subtlety and amazing diversity of nature’s design. Painting from nature is like a meditation for me, where I can be totally aware, absorbed by what the eye sees. I am looking at the world and building a visual vocabulary of stockpiled shapes, structures, textures and colors in an effort to understand.
