Antarctica, 2005

The following paintings were inspired during an expedition cruise aboard the ice strengthened M/V Lyubov Orlova to the Antarctic Peninsula in December 2005. As artist in residence aboard, I conducted several drawing and painting workshops to the many curious and inspired passengers. Through the creative act of seeing and painting we hoped to enhance our experience of this incredibly beautiful place and find some way to express reverence. I look forward to posting new studio works from this trip very soon.

     Many thanks to the wonderful fellow passengers, crew, staff and Quark Expeditions for making this Polar Arts Program a very rewarding journey.
