SISTERS - OIL ON CANVAS - 24x24
ROOTED IN SPIRIT
INSPIRED BY NATURE
Welcome to my gallery,
In a world that moves fast, my hope that this website offers a quiet refuge — a space to breathe, reflect, and reconnect with the beauty that surrounds us. My work is inspired by the harmony of nature and the depth of the spiritual world, seeking to capture a sense of peace, wonder, and hope. Through soft, flowing brushstrokes and a palette that evokes both serenity and energy, I strive to create pieces that invite contemplation and renewal. Whether it’s the gentle glow of morning light, the stillness of a quiet landscape, or the unseen presence of something greater, each painting is a meditation on the moments that ground and uplift us.
Art has the power to heal, to inspire, and to remind us of the sacred in the everyday. My hope is that my work resonates with you—that it brings a sense of calm energy into your space and stirs something meaningful within. Whether you are drawn to the depth of color, the sense of space, or the quiet emotion woven into each piece, I invite you to explore, to feel, and to find your own connection.
Thank you for being here.
I thank you God for this most amazing day; for the leaping greenly spirits of trees and a blue true dream of sky; and for everything which is natural which is infinite, which is yes.
—E.E. Cummings

WHERE I WALK - OIL ON CANVAS - 36x36
I create original paintings and mixed-media works that bring a sense of connection to those who welcome art into their lives. The art I make is personal while embodying the unseen essence of something greater than me. It hopes to nurture the soul by evoking a sense of calm and well-being.
I endeavor to make timeless art that transcends current trends and that resonates with people for years to come.
Painted with subtle, flowing brushstrokes, this piece beckons you to step into a tranquil space. Layers of soft color and texture evoke depth and airiness, so that the painting breathes, and invited the viewer to do the same.
“Standing in Light” is a captured moment in time where it is possible to pause, reflect, and simply be.

Project 02
With delicate yet expressive brushstrokes, this painting captures the serenity of rural life—a moment of stillness, a harmony between earth and creature. The sheep, unhurried and content, embody a quiet presence, their gentle existence a reflection of simplicity and peace. "Gentle Watch" is an invitation to slow down, to find comfort in the familiar, and to embrace the beauty found in life’s most unassuming moments.
SHEEP OF HIS PASTURE - OIL ON CANVAS - 30x36
Warm hues tint the morning sky as first light brings a glow to the horizon. The simple barn sits quietly above a quiet meadow in the diffused light of a new day being brought forth with a promise of the rising sun. All is well.

Why should we all use our creative power? Because there is nothing that makes people so generous, joyful, lively, bold, and compassionate—so indifferent to fighting and the accumulation of objects and money.
