Painting holds a central place in my life: as a way to capture things that hold meaning to me, or to share my experience of the world with others.

My work is rooted in Contemporary Realism and subjects range widely, from contemplative still lifes to quiet landscapes; from the movement and gestures observed in the natural world to deep connections between objects and people. The play of  light on the subject is paramount and will almost always be the first thing that draws me to it.

I naturally tend towards deep observation and hope the work I create expresses something of how I see the world.
