My current focus deals with climate effects on nature. Urban deforestation and wildfire and the death of trees. I've also been working on a series based on our hikes in the Eastern Sierras. I've done a series of paintings of rootballs--fallen trees with the tangles of roots and earth and rock lying in the sierra sun. I use mixed media and oil creating texture which mimics the tangles I paint.
