ARTIST STATEMENT
There is nothing in nature as inspiring to a wildlife artist as the opportunity to personally interact with wildlife in their natural habitat. Near 100% of my works come from personal experiences. Pursuit of muse and adventure has taken me across the United States and the world with wildlife experiences from Africa to Alaska and each spectacular in their own ways. Despite the beauty and wonder of these experiences, that is only the first step in the artistic process. The true artistic joy comes from the process of turning hundreds of photos, sketches, journal entries and emotional memories into a series of paintings. My deepest hope is that my images beautifully reflect the profoundness of emotion between both me and my subjects.. but more than that I hope they allow the viewer to glimpse the wild within.

I started the MAIL.BOX.ART PROJECT as a way to share my passion for art and support independent artists. From time to time, I feature work by an artist that I love. Each piece is meant to be enjoyed, savored, and saved. I hope this inspires you to start or grow your art collection.
