My artwork embraces the outdoors in a physical way, undeterred by rain, sleet, or snow. I would rather be outdoors hauling my painting gear to the edge of an overlook, the top of the mountain, and the rocky bed of a stream. As a former ski bum and a competitor in marathons and sprint tri’s, I have realized the incredible artistic opportunities in painting dramatic landscapes and the people who seek to explore them.

Being outdoors while painting has brought me much joy and many skills, including the ability to laugh as my wet painting blows away to the bushes on a windy day. I love to paint in oil and have been using more fun and unusual techniques, colors, and styles lately that help me express more fully my unique individuality.

The subject is light and contrast. The fascination is in the way light pours, splashes, and wraps around everything we see and contrasts the everyday with the extraordinary.

Bruce Boynton

I enjoy painting peaceful landscape scenes in a fairly representational style.

Tania Rouser

I want to paint every time I see something beautiful, like an interesting combination of colors, a captivating contrast, or a subtle harmony. My paintings are the reflection of my personality and my desire to study the visual world.
