About the Artwork:
Have you ever moved from a place that you loved, a place where you found a piece of yourself? You know that the move was the right thing to do. It’s your next stage in progression, the next phase of life. But the old adage “left a piece of your heart” rings true. You do leave a piece of your heart and that’s ok. Leave it there and let your love for that place fill the hearts of the next lucky inhabitants. But what do you do with that vacancy in your being? Fill it with all the cherished memories; the heavenly smell of citrus, the choir of a hundred birds, the visual feast of flowers blooming year round. You can always take it with you where ever you may go.
About the Artist:
After spending my life moving throughout the western US I’ve developed a love of art and creating. The colors, textures, and compositions within nature inspire me. I’m seeking the juxtaposition of things; the tension, vibration, the poetry, and harmony. I’m looking for the beauty in imperfection and then aspire to share and create joy from my observation. Working primarily in oil my subject matter varies but is always infused with elements of nature. I now create and reside in central Utah.
