Inspired by my natural surroundings, I use color and light to illustrate a memory or feeling of a particular place or time within nature. I play with light within each piece to set the mood and create a dreamlike quality. Each piece is imbued with thoughts provoked, sensations felt and emotions stirred by that moment in time”⁠ ⁠ 🗳️ There’s still time to visit and cast your vote for this year’s wine label winner!
