About The Artwork

This framed oil painting on linen is a faux-collage of painted torn documents, images from vintage film posters and wallpaper fragments with drips and signs of aging that suggest the passage of time. Although my paintings are inspired by my collages on paper made from vintage ephemera, the oil paintings are more like landscapes of fallen monuments or layers of sedimentary rock from various human eras. Birds are the protagonists foraging what mankind has left behind. This painting is part of my newest series, "The Rise and Fall," which explores how the rise and fall of viewpoints over time affects our place in nature. Signed on back. Framed in a high-quality white-washed maple float frame.

My work examines modernism and our relationship to nature throughout history. My decades-long interest in birds developed while observing birds owned by my grandfather, who was a bird breeder during an era when harboring birds in cages was popular. My oil paintings are faux-collages on canvas recreating the forms of torn vintage documents from various eras. Color, pattern and texture are layered like sedimentary rock from our collective history, with details such as intentional drips, marks and signs of age applied by hand. Birds are the protagonists, foraging what mankind has left behind. In my work the birds are free, telling a story with fragments from our past. Also included here are my collages and ink drawings on paper, done as studies for my larger oil paintings.
