The story Behind Fluid Landscapes

My Fluid Landscapes style was originally inspired by reading genetic data.

My Fluid Landscapes style was originally inspired by reading genetic data.

At 23, after finishing forestry school, I was a graduate student in California. I was homesick in the new climate, and struggling in a career path I wasn’t sure was right for me. While analyzing PCR data in a genetics lab, I wistfully imagined the data peaks as a treeline against the night sky, an abstract idea that later inspired my signature style, Fluid Landscapes.

My unusual career path begins and ends with a love for the forest, and I want my paintings to convey the beauty of forests and why we need to protect them. Thank you for helping us raise over $50K for conservation and other nonprofits.
