Palouse Falls in Washington State is one of those treasured areas that has not been changed too much through time – there are no gift shops, food kiosks, or (too many) interpretive signs, and from various perspectives, one can see the falls in their full beauty and form.

This is one of these places that, if you arrive on a day when there aren’t a lot of tourists, and you visually block out the manicured lawn and picnic tables, you drink in the vista, and imagine what it was like many years ago, when the Indians of the area lived and walked the region.

Beholding Palouse Falls, the artwork, invites the viewer to step into this time and place, to settle for a moment before the falls and simply look. The air is filled with the sound of water cascading over the cliff; there is mist in the atmosphere from the spray; and it’s cool enough that a blanket feels warm and comforting. There is no cell phone to interrupt the moment, only Palouse Falls and you.

It is...

I am a fine art painter who creates representational images celebrating light, life, and color. A commercial illustrator for more than 20 years, I have been painting for most of my life, and in the last 13 years have focused exclusively on fine art. I celebrate images that invite the viewer to step into the artwork and experience a sense of joy, peace, freedom, encouragement, meditation, and thought. There's a lot of angry art out there, as well as a lot of shallow pop. I choose to use the abilities and experience I have to promote beauty and goodness.
