Catskills Falls 16" x 20" Acrylic on Linen

My paintings are primarily inspired by hours I have spent hiking the trails and coastline of California. My brush strokes capture moments of reverie along the San Lorenzo River banks and movement by the tidal seas. Working intuitively with acrylics I attempt to bring to the canvas some of the strong emotions I experienced in my outdoor meditations.
