" My artwork is intwined with my exploration of the landscape. I am drawn to places with a wild, bleakness but that have been shaped by people, leaving a visual mark narrative. Through the process of painting, I experience the present sense of a place as shaped by weather and seasonality, and explore its stories and history. I bring to them human themes and emotions to give my audience a deeper connection to the landscapes."
