As an artist, meteorologist and veterinarian, I consider the Earth, or Gaia, as a living creature. This exhibition will consists of portraiture of the Earth’s wilderness with a focus on nature scenes and animals that mirror her spirit, mood and emotions. Thick paint and motion using brush, knife and natural objects capture moments of serenity, shadow, color and passion. This exhibition will include plein-air paintings that tell stories of depth and distance. There will be inclusion of stories of using wilderness as a rite of passage through vision fasts. National parks and endangered species will be included in this show.
