Landscape Paintings
Alfresco Dining
Acrylic on canvas | 40 x 30 | 2023
$ 9,000
The painting offers a soothing vista achieved through a rather minimalist approach to color and composition. Even horizontal brushstrokes speak to the enveloping tranquility of the scenery, while the elevated point of view and the contrasting outline of firmly planted patio umbrellas adds to the sense of temporal security. A few lamp posts beacon the viewer with an inviting soft glow. Only the muted tones and the scenery hidden by the umbrellas add distant anxiety into the mix.

A Night Ride

Honorable Mention Award, Rhode Island Watercolor Society "Winter" Exhibition, 2024
The painting was inspired by the impression of impervious winter darkness while walking along a desolate country road. In winter when days are short and there is no snow on the ground, the surrounding landscape becomes a dense mass of darkness interrupted only by sparse street lights or by headlights from a passing car. The visual sensation is similar to the emotional state of relentless gloominess which would be unbearable if it were not for glimmers of hope that dot the horizon.

Artist Statement
Existential landscapes is an exploration into the relationship between the artist and the world. For a realist artist, nature is the ultimate authority on what is beautiful. Landscapes provide endless opportunities for highly personal interpretations of environments and draw in the viewers by offering them a chance to pause, catch a breath, get grounded and uplifted, meditate on color, follow lines and resonate with authentic energy that shines through. As stories emerge from purposefully arranged compositions, they form mutable narratives that can be layered with lived experiences and what the viewers interpret as real, beautiful and undeniable.
