Artist Statement:
I paint nature scenes, often
related to old abandoned farm
buildings, in the medium of

includes the wood and metal
that we have abandoned along
the way.
When I work with egg tempera I
am reminded that the natural
world permeates everything
that nurtures our existence.

composition in aqueous pencil
on paper or panel. Then I
revise it and tighten the
