This painting was part of my 2018 exhibition in London. The title of the show was “Haven,” and here are a few thoughts that I wrote as I thought through ideas for this body of work:

My paintings of the world around me reflect my longing to find a sense of peace and shelter. The forest, the transitions of colors in the sky, the quiet watchfulness of deer and of birds, the flow of time and seasons...these are where I often look for refuge. My hope is that these paintings will convey a sense of haven, and that they will be reminders of the peace and the beauty that always surround us when we pause to watch and listen.
