ABOUT THE ARTWORK

A complex arrangement of signs and symbols using a limited palette of black, white and raw sienna. While painting it I was reminded of the marks that hobos in the depression era used to leave on picket fences communicating to their fellow hobos what they might expect at a given house.

I am an abstract painter living the greater Boston area My paintings are about the spontaneity of automatic drawing combined with the more cerebral act of editing. I try to let the materials have their own voice and react to what is presented to me, after an initial burst of unfiltered mark making. In this way I have a spirited conversation with each work until clarity and balance are achieved. In some ways, my work reflects the complexities and rhythms of nature and everyday life and how chaos can unexpectedly veer toward beauty.
