I sometimes fall out of the habit, but I try to select a title for each new piece before I place any paint on the canvas. The idea behind this being, that every time I touch it, I’m doing so with the title/meaning of the painting in mind. What I hadn’t considered before now, is naming it even before I put the texture on. This piece has thick and heavy texture that I actually applied in two phases with the sky being one of my main focal points to represent the title.

"Inspired by the simplicity of every day scenes, I work to bring those items to their extreme through an expression of dramatic color and exaggerated light. Living in the Pacific Northwest, I’m surround by natural beauty but the depiction of landscapes and street scenes comes from an interpreted existence rather that precise physical locations."
