Artist Statement :

This body of work, Here is to water, with Love Supreme, is a collection of paintings inspired by my strong connection to Nature and by my work as an aquatic ecologist. Images were inspired by the beauty of the Great Lakes and oceans that have been the topic of my research.

These are visions of worlds that exist in a place in my heart.

In my world, art and science belong together as naturally as air and water. Both inform my work influencing my approach. Observation, experimentation, improvisation and searching for patterns all come together within the creative process. As such I have developed my own techniques and my research influences the subject of my paintings in a process that is magical, nurturing and informative.

My paintings are often environmentally based and I use them to communicate concerns, dreams, and emotions, all of which emerge from my deep and relentless love for life.
