What inspires me to paint?
"I paint because I am a nature lover. The experience of drawing or painting invites one to notice the beauty of nature, the trees, plants, flowers, wildlife, land, mountains, rivers, and oceans. To smell the rain, to feel the wind, or to listen to the music of the earth and to know how sacred our earth is; far more crucial than any one individual's desire. "
