Using freehand spray paint with no stencils or blocking is difficult. The artist manipulates the medium to take on amorphous cloud formations or seeming galaxy clusters. The Nebula Series draws it's name from how similar some paintings look to galaxies via the colored images we see.

The markings are also all made in groupings of 3, 6, 9, and also 1. This is a recognition of the relevance of Nikolai Tesla's belief that the universe is mathematically made up of the numbers 3, 6, and 9. 

They together draw reference to the makings and basis of the universe.

3, 6, 9 Nebula Series

The Mountainous Series are semi-impressionist, semi-expressionist, post graffiti and neo expressionistic works.

The series looks at the ups and downs of life metaphorically, and to varying outcomes. Not only is life a reference, but the mountains themselves as a sign of stability among an ever changing world. Truth and peace remain the same, solid as a peak thousands of miles above the sea. It is as to us, we are at all times capable as becoming as peaceful as the resting mountains.

Mountainous Series

Painted in a uniquely signature style, the Neighborhoods paintings focus on architecture and beauty throughout our city streets.

Neighborhoods Series

The wood supported free hanging canvases I term "Ragamemnon Series", are explorations of complete automatism and lack of direct planning as far as mark making. They are a Pollock-esque approach to creating layered works, only much faster but with more control of mark size and interaction with lower layers of each painting.

Post-Graffiti Wall Hanging Canvas (Ragammemnon Series)

The Sanguine drawings are all contemporary modern abstractions. The works are derived from a single continuous but carefully thought out marking with conte. Sometimes one or two circles is added if the composition needs balancing. The paintings are meant to be a reference to each of our lineages. People have many backgrounds , ethnicities, and cultures, but we are all the same thing at the end of the day. We all feel the same emotions. So these works are a nod to not only our familial roots, represented in various shades from pale yellow to dark brown, but also our ties to all members of the human race.
