Nature isn’t quiet—it’s loud. These paintings are inspired by time spent at Walden Pond, where color, movement, and light come together in unexpected ways. This series began during my visits to Walden Pond in mid-March, right at the edge of spring. It’s about that first shift in the air—the feeling of stepping outside and sensing the landscape waking up again. I use bold, vibrant colors and expressive brushwork to capture that experience as I feel it: immediate and energetic. My goal is to share that sense of being immersed in the Concord woods, and to invite others to feel it too.
