I am a modern-impressionist painter who lives and works in Seattle, Washington. My bold, striking work is heavily influenced from my long 30+ year career as a graphic designer and illustrator. Fascinated by people and design, my paintings capture candid glimpses of everyday life and buried secrets of strangers, surrounded by the architecture of both nature and man. In a rare moment, driving north on the Viaduct, I suddenly found this particular stretch of road entirely void of cars. It hit me in that quiet moment that before long, this tired, old route would soon cease to exist. –Artist statement
