Starry Field Print

Based in Portland, Oregon I've worked for many years professionally as a Graphic Designer, Marketing Director, and brand builder. I've now shifted to abstract expressionist painting. The works of Sam Francis, Pollock, and many contemporaries inspire. Music, literature, science, and our shared pop-culture colors, imagery are grist for my creative mill. My technique is best described as controlled chaos, action painting, allowing the medium and moment to lead the way. The freedom of expression in abstract expressionist painting and the lack of an editor is both thrilling and terrifying. An avid reader and explorer of thoughts and ideas from Zen to Quantum Physics; these fields deeply influence my present work. I work primarily in acrylic but can incorporate some street art spray paints when the work calls for it. All works are created in my dedicated studio using studio-quality paints and canvas mounted on masonite boards. Every work is protected with an isolation coating and a final varnish. Each painting is shipped framed and arrives ready to hang. I hope my paintings ask more questions than they answer...
