Alaskan Painter of Landscapes & Things-- Studio and Plein Air Oil Paintings
All manifestations of art are
but landmarks in the progress of
the human spirit toward a thing
but as yet sensed and far from
being possessed.

Robert Henri

Alaska landscapes, for a painter the choices of awe inspiring subjects to paint are endless in this land of grand wilderness. Within this website you will see one artist's attempt to capture these wonders on canvas. Many hours and many miles have passed searching for that ideal view or perfect moment of light falling across the land. These fleeting moments of time that stir ones spirit to artistic inspiration and expression are which this artists quest is all about. Numerous plein air - outdoor studies - and many days of trekking with camera in hand have contributed to the creation of the finished works. Herein are the accumulation of experiences and memories, captured visually and shared for all. I hope you enjoy viewing these paintings as much as their pursuit and painting was.
