Painting landscape scenes are most fulfilling. Mountains, trees and oceans show the beauty of design in nature. I feel like I am creating my own secret place of serenity. I want the audience to feel they are in a special moment in time captured on the canvas.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in absolutely anything with balanced composition. The way the scene folds out into view. A unique perspective that let's my mind escape into the art unleashes peace and creativity.
What would you do with $25,000?Winning the $25,000 would allow me to pay down the mortgage on my home. I would be one step closer to a sense of freedom and ownership. This will leave a legacy for my children and their future as well as mine.
