"My painting has consistently reflected my passion for the landscape and birds, especially raptors. For the first 15 years or so, I painted in the studio, using photos and field studies, to create watercolors and oils. During this period, I was juried into numerous bird art shows around the country. Through those experiences, I befriended a number of bird landscape painters. Together, we formed working critique groups, some of which continue to meet. A number of these nationally recognized painters were then beginning to paint “on location” and in the mid-1980’s I began to paint “en plein air”.Today I would consider myself a regionalist, with the majority of my subject matter being southwestern WI. I paint more pure landscapes, though birds are often featured in the paintings. I paint between 50-75 p1cm air studies annually; some are used in preparation for larger works, but most of them simply because I love the landscape and its many moods. The landscapes in my larger paintings are also done plein air, although the birds in these paintings are often done in the studio. I also paint wash drawings of hawks and falcons, usually on gessoed paper drawing with silver point. These works are collected by falconers from around the world."
