My artistic series, “Gradual Destruction,” offers a poignant and abstract portrayal of the catastrophic impact that our planet faces—a crisis that our leaders have yet to fully acknowledge. These artworks serve as a profound window into another world, one where large atmospheric phenomena dominate the center of the canvas, while an arresting symbol resides off-center. The gradual shift of colors compels viewers to focus on this symbolic object, their “Beacon of Hope.”
The cool blues symbolize the fragile ecosystem in peril, besieged by the forces of destruction. Contrasting with these somber tones are vibrant reds, oranges, and yellows, representing a portal into a brighter future. It’s a visual journey that invites contemplation, as we confront the dire consequences of inaction while grasping for that glimmer of optimism—a world where change is possible and hope prevails.

"To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of the arts."

Thoreau once said: "NATURE is beautiful only as a place where a life is to be lived. It is not beautiful to him who has not resolved on a beautiful life."

Thoreau’s quote unquestionably resonates with me. I too, wish to address the beautiful in NATURE and celebrate its absolute wildness, innate freedom, and infinite strength. I look at NATURE with painter’s sensitivity and scientist’s eye. Through my art, I honor Nature by expressing it’s many riches, including mountains, sea coasts, sunsets, thunderclouds, and trees. I worship the environment we inhabit, but mourn its gradual destruction. I am richest when I use NATURE as my inspiration and poorer when I depict its destruction by Climate Change.

When I am about to begin a painting, I become deeply reflective and in touch with the powerful emotions that NATURE instills in me. As the painting develops, these inspirations evolve into the raw elements of form, shape, contrast, color and texture. Upon completion, these all come together to create an incredibly powerful and cohesive statement.

In my artwork I warn against the ecological poverty of that we are creating. We cannot continue to bulldoze the landscape, to pollute the air, and to ravage and exploit the NATURE with impunity. I want people to be in awe of NATURE and to take action to stop the Earth from becoming a barren wasteland!
