"Still Life: Pomme Verte Pulpeuse" Fine Art Print

Plain and simply put, I love to paint. There's a magical place where time is lost and my attention is acutely focussed on creatively expressing myself that is as close to nirvana as I can naturally achieve. I paint with bold color harmonies and heavy brush strokes. The hues are clean and the strokes deliberate. I'll occasionally use a palette knife when extra texture or when using heavy impasto. After studying a few years at University, I sequestered myself in my studio to refine my style and techniques. I honed my style though many years of practice and experimentation, private tutors, mentors, workshops, online tutorials and books. I continue to study and experiment with different tools and techniques. The subjects I choose are full of fun and flair. I like old things and tradition. I work in series that I group into collections to somewhat compartmentalize my interests. Currently I have two collections: Still Lifes, and Life Stills. Still Lifes is what you'd expect, the traditional still life painting but usually with a twist. Life Stills are paintings that freeze a moment in life to capture a memory of a time or place that was important to me or is a universal theme that would resonate with everyone. I catalogue my travels with an enormous collection of photographs of myriad subjects. If it catches my eye and I think it would make a great paintings, I shoot it.
