SOLD Painting

My paintings are subconsciously motivated images invoking a beginning. The beginning of a journey, whether internally or externally taken. "If you know exactly what you're going to do, what is the point of doing it?" is a quote from Picasso with which I very much agree. My imagery and use of color are a result of experimenting with various transfer methods, collage, and paint application. This process stimulates underlying themes that are at times autobiographical, political, environmental, or mystical. Another source of inspiration for my painting comes from the landscape, especially when I travel. Painting the landscape keeps my eye and my mind in tune with the natural elements and, in turn, serves as a resource for work in the studio. I often revisit my work and let the image dictate its completion. Quite a few paintings on this site are maquettes for grander explorations in both size and imagination.
