About The Artwork

This piece is an Homage to Rousseau (not the philosopher nor the painter, but the San Francisco architect.) Oliver Rousseau designed understated, beautiful and livable homes starting in the 1920’s. They could be described as the descendants of Arts & Crafts and Mission Revival styles of architecture. Not every Rousseau in San Francisco is an actual Rousseau – he influenced many architects and developers in San Francisco and throughout California. Some of the copies are quite good. A closer look and you’ll notice the attention to detail in a genuine Rousseau. If you step inside you’ll find more to appreciate from the hand painted beams on coffered ceilings to the small interior courtyards.

I work primarily in mixed media, collage and landscape painting. My work has included maps, postcard-themed art and mail art projects. In 2013 I began moving away from found ephemera and shifted to making my own material. This started with a series called Collagescapes. With Collagescapes, I start by painting paper with areas of color representing the palette of a specific place. Next, I cut up the paper into hundreds of small pieces. The final steps are to randomize the pieces and then reassemble them in various geometric patterns. Collagescapes are both landscape paintings and collages. My latest work is a series called Post-Folk Art. It is a nod to the color palettes found in costumes, textiles, pottery and other forms of traditional Kashubian and Polish folk art.
