I'm an expressive realist who works primarily in oils to create landscapes and skyscapes that capture the splendor of the natural world
Where do you find inspiration?For me, every aspect of nature holds beauty and wonder- from how the sunlight skims across the treetops at sunset to the kaleidoscope of colors in an ordinary stone. All challenge me to represent them in a way the viewer has never seen them before. Artists see the world differently, more intensely and perhaps more passionately than most. Expressing that feeling, that passion, and eliciting that emotion from others is the ultimate reward for an artist.
What would you do with $25,000?I would love to open my own gallery in the area, where I could invite other emerging artists to exhibit and offer workshops for fledgling artists to enhance their skills.
