I am a painter and photographer who has been producing art professionally for the past 25 years. My favorite subject is the Vermont landscape, especially the trees, throughout the changing seasons. I like lots of color and an impressionistic style using thick paint to create a heavy handed texture, preferring to apply the paint with a pallet knife instead of a brush. 

I am a seventh generation Vermonter but spent my 20's on the west coast and attended collage in Seattle earning my degree in commercial photography. While I still work part time as a portrait photographer, I prefer to spend my time driving and walking around the state capturing images I like and then turning them into paintings in my studio. In addition to the paintings I make from my photos I also enjoy cutting up the prints to make photo collages. Both the paintings and the photo collages become my own dreamscapes with unrealistic 'hyper color' that evoke Vermont and the way I see and feel my home state.
