"Specifically, I want to "record" some of these sites and traces of history, like the ruts of the Santa Fe Trail or the weathered walls of Mesa Verde. Much is being done to help preserve and restore these places, but they do continue to weather and disappear each and every day." "It is usually the landscape that inspires my paintings, and painting out of doors seems to fit me best. I want to focus on the natural beauty surrounding Lawrence and Douglas county, as well as some of the history of this area. There is a distinct energy and at the same time an enveloping serenity that comes for me when painting Plein Air."
