Grand Teton Misty Perspectives

When the fog clears, you can see the Tetons mountains in all their glory. It feels like something magical is in the air. The fog adds a mysterious touch, covering the landscape and hiding the sharp peaks. These mountains are so tall and steep, with no smaller hills in front, that it's captivating to watch them come in and out of sight. They tease visitors by showing just parts of their majestic beauty.

My Rain and Shine oil painting series is based on photos combined as a play between reality and abstraction. Influenced by the Bokeh effect of the blur created by out of focus images, I've spent many a rainy day photographing the world through my windshield as an inspiration for my rain paintings.

Water and light combine to create a sense of peace and momentum.

In these moments, I'm reminded to take a minute to just be. To pause and appreciate life as it is, and to recognize the beauty of the present moment. To allow myself to feel the fullness of life and to recognize the power of the present.

Images from nature continue to inspire my work through landscapes, beach scenes and unique flower compositions. My work has been exhibited in galleries and juried shows in Washington DC, London, Burlington VT, Arizona, Prague.
