A life fully lived is a life lived in motion. I am inspired by motorcycling around Vermont, where the riding season is short, and the landscape is breathtaking. I love chasing a single blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment in hopes of memorializing it through my artwork. Too often we go about our lives without recognizing or appreciating the world around us, and life is so short. I breathe life, wonder, and vitality into the moments of everyday life, getting inspiration from taking a walk or going out for lunch. The scenic byways of Vermont especially inspire me – being able to see for five, ten, twenty miles with a wide-open sky and a mostly undisturbed landscape.
I use acrylic paint, watercolor, and printmaking techniques in my creative process. Acrylic for its infinite colors and bold vibrancy, watercolor for its emotion and its impermanence, and printmaking for its messaging and adaptability. Through my pieces I beckon the viewer into a daydream of past and present, recalling the affection for local roads and transforming those muscle memories into an appreciation of the simple pleasures of life. Beauty and wonder exist in the world all around us – all we must do is keep our eyes open.
