Artist Statement

My work is an expression of my love for the beauty of this west coast region. Forests in particular bring us strength and stability. They have been with us forever. Their constantly changing vistas inspire and sustain us. Our forests are at risk however and I hope to create a legacy that will remain, even if our forests do not.

"Wildlife is something that man can not construct. Once it is gone, it is gone forever. Man can rebuild a pyramid but he can't rebuild ecology." - Joy Adamson

"Thank you for creating a forest for me. It will never be clearcut, subdivided or trespassed on. It may serve me in my old age ahead as I expolore its nuances in place of my present day hiking." - Leana E. Dairdoff
