Artist's Statement
The importance of preserving the pristine beauty of our Earth is becoming an increasingly hot issue in our lives. I believe that landscape painting, far from being an old-fashioned subject that it is sometimes made out to be, is in the vanguard of artistic social responsibility. Through my interest in astronomy I have gained an understanding of the unimaginably immense distances of space, the sheer size of galaxies, the temperatures at which stars burn, and the raw energy which makes up our universe. Suddenly I am much more appreciative of our little blue planet! So far, although astronomers have found exoplanets, they have found nothing even remotely like Earth. The circumstances which allowed our planet to evolve were so specialized that one wonders if it was indeed a miracle. This is a pretty special place ~ one worth caring for and appreciating its beauty; it's the only home we have. With that in mind, and considering the role of the artist as that of a visionary ~ a truth-teller or weather vane ~ helping others become aware of the beauty of our environment is key to my love of painting the landscape.
