I'm a Canadian artist living in rural Saskatchewan. Our province is known as the Land of the Living Skies – a common theme in my paintings. Working in oils, I enjoy the techniques of impressionism and tonalism. I aim to convey a particular mood or atmosphere in each piece through interesting brushwork and palette knife passages.
I regularly paint en plein air, taking my easel outdoors into the rolling hills and sprawling farmland. The knowledge gained through direct observation outdoors informs my larger paintings in the studio.
Moody, atmospheric - painting the Land of the Living Skies.
