My painting was inspired by the artists of the Pennsylvania Impressionism movement in the 20th century; in particular, I was captivated by the works of William Langson Lathrop. His paintings capture the beauty and tranquility of rural landscapes with a poetic sensibility, and the loose brushwork imbues it with a soft atmospheric quality that caught my eye. I found myself drawn to the way he infused landscapes with a serenity and stillness and I sought to replicate it in my own artwork.
