Trees

"If you look at nature closely, you can see things that elude the casual observer. You can see geometric shapes - like the angle at the point of a thorn or the roundness of a thicket of leaves.

You can see patterns - like the alignment of tree trunks in a stand or the veins of a leaf. And vou can see color - not just the obvious greens and golds and browns, but blue and red and purple hues revealed by the interplay of diffused light and shadow beneath dense canopy. In my work I try to surprise the viewer by highlighting aspects of nature that they may not recognize as real and to challenge them to look more carefully so that they can appreciate more of what nature has to offer."
