The robins arrived yesterday on their migration. They didn’t stay long. They are so pretty with their brick red breasts. Often I see the seasons emerge with bird migration as well as the gradual changes in flora through the months.

It has always been a delight for me to study the cusps of seasons and I often study that magic with my paintings. Biologists, naturalists, and other earth scientists are keenly aware of these subtleties as one season crosses to another.  

I have studied the land as a painter for many long years, enjoying that growth of skill, and understanding of the natural world. Study of nature and painting it is a team effort. My roots grow deep in both.
