High Latitudes
Art and Science in the Arctic
I have traveled twice to Greenland where I have painted alongside scientists as well as in local communities. The result is a collection of sketches, paintings, and stories that I hope may spark interest in and stewardship for the Arctic and our global environment.
Antarctica
The Warming Peninsula
The Antarctic Peninsula is warming faster than any other part of Antarctica. I traveled around the region with Quark Expeditions in 2006 and 2010. My experiences and field sketches have inspired a series of paintings exploring iceberg forms.
North Cascades
From the Foothills to the Alpline
The North Cascades mountain range in NW Washington state is home to more than 700 glaciers, the greatest concentration of ice in the contiguous United States. I am exploring the region to appreciate the diverse habitats supported by snow and ice.
Naturalist Project
Self-Guided Study of the Environment
The practice of sketching and close observation awakens the senses and cultivates scientific inquiry. Throughout my explorations, I have grown increasingly curious about natural history and have committed myself to a self-guided study the environment.
