Chris Sheridan

My desire to paint is fueled by a desire to explore, which is stoked by the natural world. For me, landscape painting transcends simply recreating a view of a place using paint. It is the device I use to immerse myself in the discovery of not only the world around me, but also myself. There is endless wisdom that can be gained while alone in nature; it presents itself in the form of introspection, humility and the eagerness to find meaning.
