Natural
extinction does occur, but the majority of species that
have become extinct in the last two hundred years became
that way due to the actions of human beings. I feel
compelled to educate people about this and have found no
better way than with my art.
I truly
want you to enjoy looking at my paintings and
drawings. I want you to see the natural beauty in the wildlife
that surrounds us, even if it is not what we usually
think of as "beautiful." I guess what I want most is for you to somehow feel the
connection that I do. If I can succeed at conveying any
of those feelings with my art work - I will be happy.
Hopefully, you will really understand what I am trying
to accomplish, and pass those feelings and thoughts on
to others – especially children.
If people are not taught to respect and care about
nature as they are growing up, it is unlikely that they
will care
about it as adults.
My greatest reward comes from the positive
feedback that I always receive. I thoroughly enjoy painting
the "details" of wildlife - and imagine that I will for
the rest of my life.
 Thank you for your interest.
