As a plein air painter and an avid lifelong sailor I experience lots of weather transitions. I love to sail along British Columbia’s rugged west coast, anchoring overnight, in a quiet peaceful cove. I vividly remember this day anchoring in Smuggler’s Cove in the quiet solitude of a calm and still morning. Little did I know how much the weather would change that evening and how fast it would change. Days later, in the quiet of my studio, I was armed with my quick plein air sketch and a few photo references I began my painting.

The great thing about plein air painting is the freedom it provides – the opportunity to find inspiration in what I see and feel, to cultivate the discipline and apply my skills and to share this experience with others. It is deeply personal but also a social responsibility.
"I want to ground the viewer, at least metaphorically, and at the same time transport the viewer to another place that feels real and familiar but also spiritual and mystic. I want viewers to have their feet on the ground but their heads in the sky."
