When I moved to LA and launched out as a professional artist and musician, I got a lot of pushback about my decision to pursue creative work. • People communicated to me that art and music were impractical fields of work with little to no use in the world. That the arts didn’t matter. • Being told that art in general was impractical put a significant block on my creative process. But I know for me, when I hear a fantastic piece of music or see a work of art that is breathtaking, I don’t think to myself, “Gee, that artist really wasted their time making that, if only they had chosen a more practical career.” Instead I praise God for the way the work makes me feel and the sense of wonder it instills. • In honor of practicality, I decided to start this painting out with the word thickly painted like a scar across the canvas. If you zoom in on the finished piece you can still see the word standing out in the landscape. A fisherman stands solemnly by the alpine lake as the sun rises over the Sierra Nevada mountains. From a purely utilitarian perspective, he’s not accomplishing a lot - but in reality he is experiencing the beauty of God’s creation. An experience that restores the soul and brings light and hope into life. An experience of incalculable value...you might could even call it being “practical.”

I paint out of my sense of wonder for the world around me. My bold, impressionist paintings are known for being shot through with coursing light; drizzled with vivid color. Scenes of jaw-dropping wonder and awe captured uniquely on canvas. I put my profound amazement of the world deep into my paintings. My paintings do not brush over the difficulties and pain of life with a sappy representation of perfection, though. Instead, I seek to express my sense of wonder through a lens of hope and redemption for the world.
