Statement:
I am constantly amazed by the colorful sunsets, lush landscape and breathless seascapes of the North West. Season after season, I find myself engaged in the study and pursuit of capturing its natural beauty.


With beeswax and pigment, I use a torch to fuse one luminous layer after another in hopes of realizing a mere fraction of what nature has to offer.
