November 2024-

​With the paintings of the last five years I feel very satisfied. Starting with The Colorworks in 2019 I have explored a particular vision of a visual language I was carrying, and my thinking about art theory and the elements that go into a successful painting.

Now I will be moving into a new style, bringing in fabric and a potpourri of collaged items, often on a layer of mylar laid over the canvas or collage, which increases the intensity of the inks and lacquers. It will be joyous, and connect to our fundamental nature as conscious beings.

Here is a small sample of what is to come- a mixed media piece on mylar over collage entitled Ballerina:
