I do landscapes using the traditional mediums of oil paint on canvas; acrylic paint on canvas and panel; and pastel on paper. Although my style appears realistic at first glance, it is more impressionistic on closer examination. I like to use color and texture with cross-hatching and dot patterns to create the illusion of reality that hopefully becomes depth and atmosphere to the eye of the viewer. My works are probably more about my painting technique rather than the subject matter.
