Artist Statement
My paintings reflect the fleeting atmospheric conditions as the sun rises or as it sets in the west. I am captivated by the few seconds when the sky becomes full of infinite color and energy. I believe that the sky is an impermanent, universal landscape, which I find extremely appealing. In my work, I am passionate about creating these passing moments in a more lasting and emotional manner.
