An Ongoing Series- "An Ambiguous Hovering 'tween Sculpture and Painting" *Acrylics and Found Objects* |
Paintings |
My true paintings are acrylics on canvas or board, done most often in what my late artist friend, Denny Arant, called "a realistic fantasy" style because up until the NYC Series, I seldom put people into these landscapes. But I realize that any painting that has a real person in it then becomes a painting OF that person, and I want to paint PLACES, not people. The NYC piece, "Balloons On 42nd Street"- you look at the PEOPLE first, and NOT the City! << But being a sculptor, I am likely to add found objects into my work, sometimes to the point they are no longer paintings, but have become sculptures. Flat canvas is nice, but WHY LIMIT MYSELF?? |

A Wide variety of STYLES |
Years of delivering specified finished looks for construction clients has freed me to offer works that are tailored exactly for and often by a client. You want it blue? Whatever . . . just remember, "good art won't match the sofa." contact me for a quote. We'll talk. |
Cubist Paintings ^^ Painting in a synthetic cubist style is very much like building a sculpture. I have to break down the subject into it's basic forms and then render them in a new format (2-d on canvas) as they change. Note how the figure is moving about in front of his easel as he paints. This style is more a time-lapse painting than a single snapshot. vv |
