I've been deeply influenced by several comtemporary photographers of the American West: Robert Adams, Chuck Forsman, Robert Weingarten, Ansel Adams. Richard Misrach.
My recent evening paintings are about the West as we see it now, not the idealized epic landscapes we see in museums, but as it is in our time, with all the intrusions, contradictions and beauty it holds.
