Influenced by the nature surrounding him, Stricher's work focuses on abstract explorations of color. His studio is located in an old mill in the French Vexin, a landscape which influenced numerous artists including Monet, Bonnard, Cézanne, Pissarro, and lately has inspired a move of Joan Mitchell's personal studio to the region. Conscious of the land surrounding his workspace, Stricher describes le Vexin as “offering a unique quality of light and diversity of landscapes.”
