Everglades Majesty



Painted at the Collier Seminole State Park. Hiked in with my gear from the parking lot about 20 minutes
and found this amazing view... I could have been deep in the heart of the Amazon, miles from civilization, if I didn't know better.

Corkscrew Sentinels



Here's a plein air scene I painted in the Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary in Southwest Florida.
Although situated in the city proper of Naples, the park is actually closer to Immokalee and Fort Myers.
