Mountains have always moved me—with their strength, stillness, and quiet grandeur. My work is an ongoing tribute to these landscapes that command awe and offer peace.
As a realist oil painter, I begin each piece by photographing the places that take my breath away—often during hikes, road trips, or time spent in the alpine near my home in British Columbia.
Back in the studio, I translate those moments onto canvas. My goal is not just to represent what I saw, but to capture what I felt: the crisp air, the changing light, the silence that settles in wide, open spaces. Working in oil allows me to layer and blend in ways that echo the subtle complexity of mountain terrain.
My artistic journey has evolved over the years—from experimenting with fluid and resin art to now embracing the technical challenges and emotional depth of landscape realism. This shift has brought me closer to what truly inspires me: the raw beauty of the natural world and the emotional connection it offers.
I hope each painting invites the viewer to pause, breathe, and experience the same reverence I feel when standing in the shadow of something vast, quiet, and extraordinary.
