Biography

My interest in art, landscape, flowers, and music all stem from my childhood on the farm in southern Alberta where the expansive prairie, sky, and distant Rockies captured my imagination.

In almost all of my landscape work, I become very intrigued with the interplay of the dramatic natural forces that act upon the landscape.  These forces translate into the push and pull of the visual elements in the composition.

In my work, the expression of feeling becomes a balancing act in which I attempt to give the work a sense of spirit and life though a fluid gestural painting style but still exert enough discipline over colour and composition etc. to give the piece unity.  I like to allow accidental things to happen with the movement of the paint and brush so that the piece begins to take on a life of its own.  After a rather loose stage of carefree direct painting, I then face the task of bringing order and enough clarity  to the composition to allow the viewer both an emotional feeling and some understanding of the subject.

Even though the representation of reality is present in my paintings, the solution of abstract design problems is my main concern.  I hope that each painting will say something about the original subject matter but will also communicate on an abstract level, which I believe, contributes to the communication of feeling.
