ARTIST STATEMENT:

A YEAR AWAY showcases a selection of my works on paper and canvas that represent the encounters I had while away from St. Andrew's for a sabbatical year. All the pieces were executed on site, out in the many landscapes I was fortunate to travel through, carried by the scent and character of seasons both abroad and close to home. Brittany, France, Dutchess County, New York, and Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge in Delaware became my inspirational topography, and I painted repeatedly from the same places to "get to know them." This year was a gift and I sought to drink the cup I was offered to its fullest. Past Exhibitions
