I'm a fine art landscape painter based in New Jersey, USA. I'm mostly a self-taught artist, fumbling and growing creatively over the past 20-plus years while raising my three wonderful children.
Heavily influenced by tonalist and impressionist landscape painters both past and present, I aim to bring the transitional moments of the day into view through my artwork. The overall mood that these moments bring, shaped by the amount of light and atmosphere within each scene drives me to complete each piece.
My paintings are not of specific places, yet seem familiar in many ways. The main objective of each painting is for it to stand alone; to bring the viewer on a visual journey closer to a stillness within themselves. In this stillness emerges a reminder of what truly is and what always will be; a visual balm to an otherwise chaotic world, or for some, a respite for a chaotic inner landscape.
