Why I Draw
By training, I’m a graphic designer;
but, I’m also a fine artist, poet & wandering soul.
My en-plein-air paintings are immediate and spontaneous,
a response to light & a moment in time.

They capture impressions — the spirit of the place.
Working this way forces me to be still,
to experience place in a way that I can’t when I’m just walking through.

They’re my visual travel souvenirs.

I Love the Weather
In bad weather speed is essential, good weather lets me be more contemplative.
I often go back to the same place in different seasons, weather & times of day.

I love being out in crazy weather.
It must be because my Dad was a weatherman...
I often end up liking the quickest sketches...
drawn in the wildest conditions, the best.

Cane Mutiny: A Breath of the Mountains
