Art

Acrylic and oil on canvas, 48” x 36”

First in a series of imaginary landscapes, this one based on a canyon a few miles out of town, with a concentration on segments and patterns of color over form and perspective.

Acrylic on canvas, four feet by three feet.

Playing with texture, layers, scratches, rollers and the half remembered feeling of drawing as a kid, using pictures to make believe.

Orchard paintings 11.10.21
 

On my morning walk I take a shortcut through a giant tangerine orchard - the fruit is so good and the moment you take a bite the colors all around get hot and bright and beautiful. Trying to capture that feeling in color and form and texture.
