She found peace in nature, and now nature carries her memory.
This body of work is dedicated to my mother, Ada.
From my earliest memories, she was my greatest supporter. My mother had a deep love for nature and all animals, but specifically birds, deer, butterflies, horses, and the spirit of the western and Native landscapes. These were not just things she admired; they were reflections of her gentleness, her appreciation for freedom, and her connection to nature in its purest form. Today, they live on through my oil paintings.
From childhood, she encouraged my art, even when the path was uncertain. She believed in me before I believed in myself. Every brushstroke I make carries her influence, her faith, and her sacrifice.
This website, and the art it holds, stands as a tribute to her life, her love, and the legacy she left behind.
