The most deeply embedded memories I have are of riding horseback along winding trails, through running creeks, up rocky paths—while listening to my horse’s rhythmic clopping, feeling the wind swirl my long brown hair, and savoring the feel of brush gently palming my face. In this sacred silence, my hands naturally grabbed at branches and pungent pine boughs, while grazing peeling barks, and reaching for blackberries from wild, pregnant bushes. This is why I paint landscape~my passion, my fortress.
