Because I hear artists should have a statement…
Appreciating nature is the first step to conserving it. My work is brought to life to spread that message.
As an artist, I am deeply motivated by the need to protect our planet's fragile ecosystems and the magnificent creatures that inhabit them. Through my paintings of bold color, contemporary Western wildlife and landscapes, I strive to create a sense of unique wonder and awe that inspires viewers to appreciate the natural world in a new light and to take action to protect it.
By imbuing my subjects with bold and vibrant colors, I seek to capture the energy and vitality of the animals and their environment. Through this aesthetic, I hope to convey the message that our globe is a vibrant, living entity that must be respected and preserved for future generations.
Ultimately, my work is a call to action, a reminder that we all have a role to play in protecting our planet and the creatures that call it home. By celebrating the beauty and diversity of Western flora and fauna through my art, I hope to inspire others and ignite a sense of urgency around the need to preserve it for future generations.
