One of the biggest pleasures I find in life is the act of discovery. The opening of a new day, the hidden treasures awaiting around the bend in the road, the source of that reflection, what object cast that massive shadow? And my second biggest pleasure is to capture these moments on canvas. I still view this worlds beauty with childlike wonder. I try to recreate with my own imagination.
I do not aim for photographic interpretation, my camera does that for me. (one of these days I’ll share my thousands of photos with you.)
I sketch with my camera. I analyze the photos in my studio and study what it was that made me want to capture this image. It usually had something to do with the shadow cast or the light reflected Which leads to one of my philosophies of life. What we do in life, lives on longer than do we.
There are several paintings dispersed here and there that were of something I just felt like painting, for painting's sake or because it was a commission, (I love commissions) but more often I work in series. I’m sharing a few here with you. Please enjoy and leave me a message on my contact page. I’d love to know you were here to visit.
a sample of some of the images I’ve done in series
REFRACTED IMAGES
A brilliant crimson path shot across the floor as I entered the room, it came from from a collection of colorful plastic boxes holding thumbtacks and such on the windowsill of my studio. Thus began my obsession with painting cubes and their refracted colors.
I began to photograph them from all angles and observed how quickly the reflections transformed as the sun shifted.
CAPTURE EACH MOMENT
It will never again exist The sun will not repeat it’s angle Nor the wind it’s force The spirit will not be the same Nor will your state of mind see it that way again.
