An invitation into the forest

For the past five years my painting practice has focused on studies of the trees of the Hoh Rainforest in the Olympic National Park in Washington, USA. Two solo shows - one at the Columbia Center for the Arts in Hood River, Oregon in 2024 and the other at the Columbia Gorge Museum in Stevenson, Washington in 2025 have featured many of the works from this series. Most of the original pieces are now in private collections, but those that remain can be found at the 301 Gallery in Hood River and Carson Art Garage in Carson, Washington.

Fine art reproduction prints in giclee on textured, archival paper are now available in the shop.

I am now turning my attention to the forests of my home in the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area and the beaches and sea stacks of the Washington, Oregon, and Northern California coastline.

I grew up in south central Alaska exploring the fjords and forests of the Kenai Fjords National Park. I am looking forward to a future series of forest and ocean scenes from the Kenai peninsula. In the meantime, I’ll also be exploring the inner spaces and liminal worlds of my own mind, so buckle up it gets weird in there.

Thank you for taking the time to view my art and your interest in purchasing art directly from a living artist. It matters.
