Photography and Digital Prints

A group of works done just before and during lockdown in 2020 while  during the early stages of the pandemic. These pieces demonstrate that even during those restrictive days, there was still life.

There's Still Life

Works which explore an optical approach to an inner landscape where a mosaic of forms delight the eye.

Optical Screens

Brilliant hard edge abstracts painted in a  style reminiscent of stained glass making which gave the style its name in the Post-Impressionist period.

Cloisonnist Abstracts

These are paintings from 2009-2010 which explored figurative themes in a tribal or shamanistic context. This series was shown in Paris and Lisbon in 2010.

Personal Totems

Works from the artist's early career with works which have been exhibited and published internationally. Only prints are available at this time.

Surrealistic Dreams

This series builds on texture and forms to create a world of organic mystery.

Hidden Forms

Works which use landscape elements to create a mosaic of forms and shapes.

Landform Abstractions

A series which is currently on tour in Europe. At this point only prints are available.

Dream Gardens

During the pandemic lockdown the still life works I had been doing evolved into what I called 'play zones', restricted areas where you can still find just enough space to play. This series represents my poetic, yet resolved response to those days.

Play Zones

Selections from different periods of my work which reflect various motifs or aspects of Art Deco.

Echoes of Art Deco

A series based on the music of Maurice Ravel for the ballet of the same name.

Daphnis and Chloe

Abstract canvases influenced by the west coast rain forest landscape of Bowen Island, B.C.

Forest Forms

Large scale works on good quality artist's paper. Many are  abstract with hints of landscape or the figure.

Works on Paper

Large Abstracts

Canvases and works on paper which blend elements of the figure with an abstract landscape.

Abstract Figurations

Spring in the countryside is special. The rich earth softens and gives up its treasures--green shoots turn to flowers and trees wear new clothes.

On April 1, 2013, I arrived at the Rouges-en-Verts Studio Gallery near the village of Soligny-La-Trappe in the bucolic Perche region of Normandy to do a two-month Artist-in-Residence stay. Visions of warm days painting al fresco were dashed on the very first morning when an unseasonable snowfall turned the countryside white. Spring took its time coming that year, but come it finally did and I documented the progress in these works all completed in the Rouges-en-Verts studio.

Perche Mode

Lyric Abstracts

Slightly punk, slightly Matisse, lots of color! I created the works in the Eye Candy collection for exhibitions in Venice and Berlin in 2015. Several of the works are inspired by Venice--the jostling gondolas, the unique Adriatic light, the bright colors and shapes of a city built on water. 

These colorful paintings are a bit crazy and kind of quirky. 

Each work in the series is an acrylic on canvas and is 22" x 24". Buy one as an accent piece or choose a selection to make a daring statement.

Eye Candy

A collection of realistic and semi-abstract works which conjure various cultures and landscapes.

Exotic Destinations

Paintings that invoke the collision of forms which I learned from absorbing the work of French sculptor, César, who made sculpture from crushed automobiles.

Mashups

Works which derive from abstract expressionism and automtaicist surrealism, which was the foundation of the former miovement.

Action Painting

A series of large abstract canvases that explore the idea of flowing water in flat, hard edge shapes. 

Waterfalls

I love France and travel there as much as I can. I love French artists like Monet, Rousseau, Renoir, and Matisse; I love the French culture (and food!); and as a painter, I especially love the French landscape. Over the past several decades, I've created hundreds of paintings and drawings inspired by my travels in France. If you've been to France, you know first hand the sublime beauty of its landscapes. In this collection, I include paintings inspired by my visits to Brittany, the Forest of Fontainebleau, and Provence. 

French Landscapes

Works which have both organic, natural origins and technological implications.
