Distracted Naturalist: Portfolio

Much of my artwork is inspired by time spent outdoors: hiking, mushroom hunting, bird watching, and just noticing and feeling the multitude of cycles and patterns found in the world and throughout the year.

I also enjoy creating art while traveling and visiting new places and also while being a member of the audience at events. In both cases the creative process helps focus my attention on the here and now, and to infuse the memories with greater significance.

A typically work flow is to start with some field sketches or photos of the subject. This is then worked over with various apps available on the iphone and ipad.
