About the art
Artist statement
This work was commissioned by a client in Germany. Just as the painting was finished the whole Ukraine / Russia invasion started. My hope is that this work will bring the clients hope for a better future for themselves and their families.
My work is a twist on the traditional, landscape, a compromise between the real and the eternal. I decontextualize. Then, I reconstruct.
Through my artwork, I try to bring the outside in. I want the viewer to connect and recognize something of a longing in their heart. a longing for beauty, peace, and hope.
Living with beautiful objects that pay tribute to the natural world reminds us to slow down and helps us reconnect with nature.”
