Bring Home Art That Awakens Your Senses and Lasts Forever.

My paintings sit at the crossroads of Post‑Impressionism, California Impressionism, and American Regionalism, filtered through a career in photography and film. I work from my own photographs of rivers, levees, farms, coastal cliffs, and suburban edges, using paint to shift my camera captures into lived, felt spaces.

Structurally, I'm in conversation with early California landscape painters and Cézanne’s concerns with light and form; thematically, I'm closer to the American Regionalists and social landscape photographers who map how we inhabit working land. The result is a body of work that treats mailboxes, beehives, tractors, beaches, and gas stations with the same attention we usually reserve for grand vistas.

BECAUSE ART DOESN’T JUST FILL A SPACE —

IT TRANSFORMS HOW YOU SEE YOURSELF IN THE WORLD.

The family farm

You care deeply about the land we share

“We have neglected the truth that a good farmer is a craftsman of the highest order, a kind of artist.”

— Wendell Berry

This collection is a tribute to the family farm—its beauty, its labor, and its quiet, enduring presence in our lives. These works grow out of a lived relationship with the land.

Pathways, trails, and rivers

You yearn for roads less traveled

"Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don't even recognize: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves...our own two eyes. All is a miracle.

— Thich Nhat Hanh

Mountains and rivers, train tracks and footpaths under open skies — this collection of landscape paintings brings the poetry of the outdoors onto canvas. These works reflect the majesty and serenity of nature, offering peace and inspiration with every glance.

the SEAShore

Casting a net of wonder

At the beach, life is different.... We live by the currents, plan by the tides, and follow the sun.

— Sandy Gingras

From calm horizons to crashing waves, this collection captures the ever-changing moods of the ocean. Each seascape painting brings the rhythm of water and sky into your space, offering both serenity and power in every knife- and brushstroke.

Fauna

You understand a shared fate

“O to be self-balanced for contingencies, to confront night, storms, hunger, ridicule, accidents, rebuffs, as the trees and animals do.”

— Walt Whitman

Across this collection, animals appear as companions in the landscape — each presence grounded and unhurried, carrying the weight of daily life without drama. These animals soften the viewer’s gaze: they invite calm, affection, and a sense of fellow being, while also hinting at endurance, work, and mutual dependence between humans, creatures, and land.

Call it what you will — connection, oneness, nonduality, awakening, even quantum woo — let each canvas tell a story of beauty, wonder, interdependence, and belonging.

Bring the quiet of Nature and the human presence into the heart of your home.

Where Vision Meets Canvas.
