About The Artwork
Part of the current series of paintings using tar and house paint in addition to more conventional artists' media such as oil and acrylic. Artist's Statement: "I have been making these painting beginning with a basic form using tar, a materials I worked with way back that I have begun using again because of its extraordinary beauty and physical principles. Then I go in with oil and acrylic, and generally use the house paint to flatten the surface and add to the negative space, reducing the more solid forms that push forward. These paintings are built up with many layers. I have been using a very limited color palette, but I painted the past few as the coronavirus has been raging here in New Orleans, and gave myself a little latitude in search of light."

United States
I have been selling my art worldwide since around 1990. For eight years I had a gallery on Magazine Street in New Orleans; I sold it in 2019 and moved everything online - which is where things seemed to be headed. My paintings are in fine collections from Beirut, to London, to mansions in Aspen and the California wine country. But it's important to me that the prices not rise to where they are unaffordable for collectors who are not wealthy; so I try to keep them reasonable. My influences include Cy Twombly, Robert Rauschenberg, Julian Schnabel and Sean Scully. I have never been interested in the forms I choose for my paintings. I make quick decisions about them. What matters to me is surface quality, color, line quality, negative space. Sometimes the negative space is more important than the forms that push forward.
