“My
botanical oil paintings are a kind of iconic portraiture.
They are created using multi-tonal
layers
of oil paint, graphite,
wax and more in transparent liquidity and textured impasto.
Sensitive draftsmanship combines
with professorial, chance and intentional occurrences in
paint
illuminating delicate, fibrous, inner workings. It
is my intention to create recognition, a connection
that
is perhaps instinctive, of our own inner energy and wherein
we find profound nourishment.
Recently, the Cape Cod Museum
of Art included my work in their permanent collection.” |
