ABOUT THE ARTWORK

A transparent box-like form floats in a cream-colored plane. Below it we notice a rectangular shadow... or maybe a portal of some sort? Moving outward from the portal we are forced to dodge some imposing beams composed of a pinkish substance - whatever it is we are wary of getting too close, especially since we notice a dark, ashy spot nearby. Perhaps this is the charred remains of an unfortunate wanderer who crossed paths with a beam. It's also entirely possible, though, that this is some form of dark matter immune to the beams. It's mesmerizing really, and we can scarcely look away until we are forced to do so by the red-green baton imposing order on the whole scene. The work is made on 80-lb. cream-colored acid-free paper. Materials used are charcoal, marker, colored pencil, and chalk pastel. It is sprayed with a coat of fixative to prevent smudging, but careful handling is encouraged. The work is signed in the front lower right corner. The back is signed, dated, and titled. I can ship this work matted at no additional cost - just let me know if that's your preference. The mat is custom cut. Paper Dimensions: 9" x 9" Image Dimensions: 8.75" x 8.75" Mat Opening: 8.5" x 8.5"

SHIPPING AND RETURNS
Delivery Time:

I create abstract art with a focus on gestural abstraction, mark-making, geometry, and color. My work begins with rudimentary shapes or forms. As I explore their properties they often mutate and interact in unexpected ways. Additionally, I find that certain colors seem to resonate with each other. I find it valuable to view multiple finished works together, either actively or unconsciously. Sometimes, just seeing multiple works near each other through my peripheral vision will inspire one or more new works. In this way my discoveries continually compound and combine to yield new ones. I want to create things people haven't seen before. In doing this I hope to remind the viewer what it feels like to experience a particular color, smell, or other sensation for the first time. I hope to build a visual world which is strange, playful, intriguing and enduring. I am based in Cleveland, Ohio.
