About The Artwork
"The Golden Bridge," This image is based on a story I wrote about muses and friends as seen through the history of collage. My dearest friend lives on the other side of a bridge that is literally broken, as is much of our world in the trying times of 2020. Although the actual bridge that is broken is simply a modern and not very well built length of concrete crossing the Duwamish River, this imagined landscape looks back in time to when a bridge was a work of art and ornament and poetry. The background textures come from photos I have taken of the inside of the Battery Street Tunnel before it was closed in in the destruction of the Alaska Way Viaduct. The architectural detail is a glimpse of Portland's fine terracotta before much of the downtown architecture was covered with graffiti. All of my collages tell a story of time and place. This work is composed from my original painting and photography. It is not a reproduction of a painting, but a contemporary print in which the print is the only manifestation of the image in the physical world. The finished piece is meticulously proofed and printed on Moab Entrada, using archival pigment inks rated to last for 100 years or more. The prints come with a certificate of authenticity verifying the edition number and the edition size. These prints are traditionally numbered and signed in light pencil with the number on the left and the signature on the right, just below the image. They are intended to be matted with approximately 1/2 inch of space all around to reveal the signature, but can be cropped to the edge of the image if desired. Prints are sold unframed. Due to the difference in monitor settings on various devices I cannot guarantee that the color match of what you receive will be exact compared to what the listing shows.

Throughout my work I explore impermanence as it occurs in the urban landscape and in nature. My architectural prints and mixed media pieces focus on the radical reshaping of the built landscape through gentrification and de-industrialization. As we are confronted with change and our relationship to it, I am interested in the question of how much of the past we value and hold onto, and how much we let go to make the future our “now.” My work lives on the edge between nostalgia and accommodation, mediating through the elements of surface and iconic structure to a conversation about history, identity and sense of place. I have been a calligrapher and letter form artist for much of my professional art career, creating well known brandmarks for film, books and packaging. I have created custom typographic identities for Kitty Kelly, Clive Barker, Naomi Judd, and Anne Rice among others, and movie titling for Dreamworks and Walt Disney. As a fine artist I bring my passion for mark making and the architecture of letter forms into the abstract realm. I have a calligrapher's subtle sense of surface and texture, and incorporate calligraphic mark making into many of my pieces. I use photography, digital composition, printmaking, mixed media and collage, shifting as needed to suit my subject matter. I embrace new media and the infinite ways in which the analog and the digital can be shaken, stirred and poured into a new creative form.
