Years ago I was deeply involved with large format landscape photography. Traveling and hiking through some of the most beautiful parts of America. As the years passed, life took many different paths and my passion eventually progressed to painting. I've always had a love for early European and American landscape artist. Claude Lorrain, Sanford Gifford, Worthington Whittredge, Christoffer Eckersberg, JMW Turner, Frederic Church and many others. Here are selected works from some of my favorite large format images painted in the spirit of my heroes in art.
