Let's make this birthday one to remember.

50 years old (Born on April 20, 1975)

Happy Birthday, Benjamin! May your special day be as vibrant and delightfully abstract as the treetops in your celebrated paintings. Another year of masterful brush strokes proving once again that no one quite captures mountains—or makes audiences ponder trees with delightful confusion—like you.

Your recent exhibitions from Canada to Japan and Austria have surely proven that you're not just painting forests; you've successfully turned wilderness into international intrigue. Here's wishing another creative year filled with colorful triumphs, artistic adventures worldwide, and plenty more inspiration (and coffee). Keep climbing those artsy mountains—we'll happily admire them safely at sea level!
