Prearranged Juncture

24" x 30"

Acrylic on wood panel

This piece represents layers of time. The numerous layers make the painting vibrate as a whole. The more time taken to view it the more the layers fuse together, making it more difficult to decipher between each layer. It introduces a personal history. The patterning allows me to control the manipulation of each layer, confronting the laws of past, present and future in a non-chronological manner.

This piece was influenced by an Irish actress/model who yelled a lot and just had a lot of energy. I wanted to create illusions of different layers and picture planes, almost confusing the eye of where each one sits. I also am attracted to the balance of the shapes and how they are composed on the support.

This painting was done from a photograph I took at Silver Spring, Fl. I was really attracted to the reflections of the trees and wanted to mimic that along with the camouflage of the gator's head. The only real indications that this is a reflection on water are the bubble ripples and the ripples around the head.

I was asked to describe a road. My ideal vision of any road. This is that road.

Lady with the Pink Poodle

Painting II 2010

These four pieces were done for our random identity assignment. We were to choose a person that we could have no contact with and do four paintings based on that person. I chose a lady that came into my work with a pink poodle. I was appalled that a person would actually dye their pets fur. In this process I became disgusted with pink paint and wanted the viewer to experience the same sickness. With that, the fourth piece expresses this disgusting aspect with cat hair down the middle.
