ABOUT THE ARTWORK

I've enjoyed the work of Wayne Thiebaud of late and I wanted to create imagery related to his dessert series. The use of light is paramount in his work as it is in mine. It began as a question, "What would it look like if I painted it?" I had to find out. Thus, my pastry series. I hope the subtle light and soft rendering of the piece evokes a sense of light humor and rich decadence.

I've always been taken with light and achieving its subtleties in my work. Light began as a fixation, something I sought to master in an effort to create space and atmosphere. Later, the existence and the absence of light became a device to create formal compositions drawn from public places I frequented. Light in my work has evolved further and has now developed into a character itself, used within Divinely inspired narrative and still life. I use representational imagery through the medium of oil painting. My works are painted on varying primed surfaces. Each painting utilizes many of the techniques prized by oil painters throughout history. Intense value shifts create dynamic contrast, and slight color exaggeration allows the viewer a glimpse of an idyllic sensory experience. My paintings continue to transform as I seek to describe beauty and truth through oil painting.
