Redwoods with Fires Up North Painting

A memory of a redwood forest in California. It was pink and green and otherworldly because of the smoke. I paint landscapes drawn from the memories of places where I feel at home: the maple forests of new england, the river valleys of upstate New York, or the mountainsides of colorado. Unlike the placese they represent, my paintings are shaped not by the forces of nature but by the details that I have visually catalogued and indexed in my mind, the colors and forms that have made lasting impressions on me, the ones that visually connect me to a place when I see them painted on a board-- Its a powerful thing a painting, it can be an airline ticket for your heart. My hope for you, viewer, is a visual experience that will take you too to a place; A place you've been, or a place you'd like to go. it makes no difference to me whether its the one I was remembering when I painted the scene. The exact locations of my landscape paintings are intentionally kept vague as the coordinates at which I stood as I soaked in my surroundings have no real bearing on whether I might succeed in my goal of sending you off to a place that you remember fondly, someplace where you felt safe and happy and at one with the natural beauty that surrounded you there. A place you feel at home.
