This November I'm teaming up with Joseph Zogorski for a 2-man at Artists' Gallery in Lambertville, NJ. Joe Zogorski is a photographer and I think his black and white nature photography works really well with my landscape paintings.

'Quietude' is defined as the state of peacefulness; stillness; tranquility. Joe and I both find our inspiration in the quiet and serenity of the world around us, and I think our work is the embodiment of quietude.

My inspiration continues to come primarily from the hikes I take as I explore the woodlands and mountains of north Jersey, and in this show I have a strong theme of rivers and streams. I never really plan a theme for my shows and I usually don't even realize that I have a theme until I step back and look at the new work I've done. This year I've definitely been fascinated by rivers and streams.

Joe Zogorski's nature photography focuses on the remaining rural countryside of Bucks County, PA and nearby parts of New Jersey. The lives of his ancestors and their stories of living in a community closely tied to the land help to inform his image making.

This is the most work that I will have on display at any one time this year, so I hope you get a chance to stop by and experience some quietude.
