Oils, pastels, mixed media, and sculpture.
New York New York

The work is displayed from the most to the least recent. The objective paintings are primarily concerned with natural forms and the way they merge and emerge in space. The more abstract mixed media work done thus far deals with the way forms interact and appear to dissolve into and replace one another. The tapestry like effect that results from disintegrating layers,laid side by side, has consistently drawn my attention. I see the objective and abstract work as related- different ways of observing natural phenomena. This site is in progress; earlier examples of objective and abstract paintings are being added.

Mixed Media-Non-representational-Flow

Flow

Flow was inspired by melting ice, and what it reveals underneath. Originally my most heavily "material" piece, it too underwent transformation upon my move to the metalic and reflective surroundings of New York. Off came various fibrous, absorbant materials covering metal. Flow is essentially a large wall hanging. It includes photographic images, fiberglass cloth, burlap, acrylic paint, etc., and hangs off wood. I like the way it appears to almost be unravelling, structurally, on one side.
