New Work

Below are a few pieces I made over the course of the past 2 months. Admittedly, a bit of time has passed since my last post seeing as I have been getting outside a decent amount as well as attending to some pressing life matters. To comment a bit on the subject matter of "shedding", I was trying to capture the nature of bonds formed between people and the degree to which those bonds contain hints of the superficial. Specifically, I was trying to create a deliberate ambiguity as to whether the two figures are merging or separating. In the case of the latter, another layer of ambiguity is apparent regarding whether the standing figure is removing the other character like clothing or painfully peeling him off as if he were a part of her skin. The expression on the woman's face could also be one of relief or pain.

The piece below was the product of going crazy with dimensions and forms and having some fun by attempting to not get to wrapped up in the conceptual basis.

New Painting called "Springtime Solace"

It is a sad truth that, as a result of a general culture of consumption, the amount of beautiful people around, and the general frenzy of everything, a large number of stunning urbanites are lonely and almost incapable of love, for they all just want the next best thing. This becomes most noticeable in Spring. Keep pollenating that field of lonely flowers you restless go getters!      

A painting I finished last month called "islands of Two"

New Painting

This is the product of attempting translate the creation of warped architecture  that comes so easily in drawing to paint. The process has been challenging, but "Paths in Flux" seems to be a step in the right direction. Click here to view a full portfolio.

A painting called "Unseeing Percept" that I completed last month.

Admittedly I have not been as active lately relative to posting material online. However, I have remained busy working on a number of paintings simultaneously that will contribute as members of a group show I'm working on with the magnificent Beth Robinson. So, expect more to come in short order and thank you for taking the time to check out my work! 

just finished a painting called "wading for you" (part of a triptych)

here is a piece I created recently called "A Time to Reap"
