Artist statement

As an abstract mixed media artist, i create landscapes that explore the resilience of nature with original painted and textued papers, fibers, acrylic paint, and found papers. the possible future of the ruined planet we have created is bleak. But Nature will adapt, cover our structures, and repropagate, as she has done before. She was here long before us, and will survive with or without us.
