Art for me is all about seeing things in a different way. The world can become a very simple place when you see it as nothing more than lines, shapes of color, and changes in value. Art is all about simplifying what we see, capturing the beauty that exists in that simplicity. That's art to me, and that's what I try to do with my art. Enjoy!

Old White Barn
I did this painting in Midway for the Plein Air Paradise competition. I'm surprised with how much I enjoy this painting. It was painted over the top of a failed painting from the day before and I only had about 2 hours to do the whole thing before I had to turn all my paintings for the competition in. I did this one completely with a knife and it kind of ended up with a gritty and loose quality which I love. Probably my favorite from that week for sure.
