Seeding from a love of tracing tree rings until my eyes were sore lead to something that is not only therapeutic to make but fun to look at after. A break on the eyes, if you will. I love to use complimentary colours- pushing and pulling, working and flowing together. The limitless types of colour combinations existing in nature is where I find inspiration for my palettes. When I notice a complimentary pairing; for example- the deep green of a skyline dense with pine trees, and the glowing warmth of a sunrise- I have confidence knowing that this was really laid out by the fabrics of reality to be reproduced in a painting because the universe did it first.
