Washington State Pleinair Painter

“I work in a style I call Modern Impressionist Cubism — paintings that merge the light and emotion of modern impressionism with the structure and rhythm of cubism. Rooted in direct observation and plein-air experience, my work translates shifting light, weather, and movement into bold color and form. Each piece explores how perception changes — how the world can be both felt and constructed within a single moment.”

Each canvas is born outdoors, painted on location in the rivers, mountains, and forests of the Pacific Northwest. Living nomadically, I carry my work into these places — camping for days at a time, letting weather, light, and silence push their way into the painting.
