ABOUT THE ARTWORK

She of the Grain was created with oil paint on primed linen. The professional grade linen is stretched over wooden stretchers with a 4cm thickness. The extra thick stretcher gives the painting presence when hung on the wall. This work is ready to hang. Some paintings are manifested from visual memory where as others are constructed from images formed during the painting process. The image evolved over the course of production. She of the Grain is a reference to the ancient temple of Demeter at Eleusis. The Goddess, Demeter was a teacher who in theory could be visited through an ergot spiked cocktail. The image is a mental imprint of the caves and landscape around the temple. The painting process was inspired by Wayne Thiebaud's dessert series.

My art works are products of the media I ingest. I think of the information I absorb as fodder for imagination. The richer the information, the more complex the results. The most intriguing aspect of the creative process is the formation of ideas. I believe in part it is our responsibility to seek out quality information for a healthy imagination, but I also believe our intentions are equally important. Our intentions invite the Muse. They color and shape her guidance. "If a man comes to the door of poetry untouched by the madness of the Muses, believing that technique alone will make him a good poet, he and his sane compositions never reach perfection, but are utterly eclipsed by the performances of the inspired madman." - Socrates (399 BC, Classical Athens) FROCK GALLERY
