I see patterns everywhere. Nature is filled with the magical beauty of patterns. My paintings begin their life with a pattern. I like to look at patterns in the sky. Look for them in the canopy of trees, look at the river. Look for patterns in the reflection or the flow of the river. Mountains and fields, oceans and seas convey to us the messages of Nature. I sometimes see patterns in my dreams and remember them. I want to convey to everyone that our world is made of the most incredible beauty of patterns. Nature writes us messages in Patterns. Perhaps we can unravel her language one day. I want to capture and leave these messages in my paintings, which people may one day be able to read and understand their purpose in this world.
