NORTH AMERICA

My paintings are done using a traditional oil technique. I strive for accuracy in both the behavior and appearance of my wildlife subjects and don't paint an animal that I haven't seen myself, preferably in its natural habitat. I am always interested in the design possibilities of animals, plants and landscapes, and often use that as a starting point. Fieldwork is essential for sketching, photographing and observing my subjects, so my cameras, sketchbook and pens, binoculars and spotting scope travel with me. I use a combination of what I've seen, drawn & photographed when I put together a painting, along with my memories and feelings about the place.
