Collage 2022-2023
Acrylic-painted paper collage. From line to shape, from black and white to color, from flat to 3D, from still to animation—invention to observation back to invention.
Sketchbook 2018-2021
Ink, pencil, and gouache in Stillman & Birn Alpha Series sketchbook.
Sketchbooks
Ink, pencil, and gouache in various bound hardcover books, including Stillman & Birn, Moleskine, and handmade from India.
Oil painting
When using oil paint, I work from life in natural light, interested in observations from the mundane to the transcendent, often in dialogue with historical precedents: forms, methods, and subjects, including but not limited to tabletop arrangements, window sills, and landscapes on-site.
Collage
I make collages using acrylic-painted cotton bond paper & bookbinders glue on bristol or other archival card stock.
Magnolias
Daily postcard-size oil paintings from life of magnolia flowers on linen panels.
Mylar
Mylar is a plastic coated material popular for it’s translucent light quality and sensual surface. It is a durable substrate for drawing with a mixture of powdered graphite and oil medium.
Gouache
I paint gouache copies of masterpiece paintings by artists whose work I enjoy and want to learn from. Many of my paintings are published on my blog where they are searchable by artist’s name.
