TWISTS + BENDS


I've been working off and on these days with figurative 
pieces in exploration of movement and interaction. 

The above three panels illustrates the preliminary 
layering and blocking-in. All imagery is still very 
loose, but will tighten as the painting progresses. 
I will also apply a sliver of gold leaf following 
the skating path.

Isn't it amazing of all the contortions skateboarders 
subject their bodies to, while in flight?

FRIDAY BREAK

2 + A HOLE 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" pastel 8" square white archival matte, glass + gold leaf frame PRIVATE COLLECTOR It's been a long week getting everything together for the opening of Frayed , so decided I needed a sweet treat to chill out. Nothing like a frosted donut which is always so yummy! When I was young my Mother used to make homemade donuts, which is indescribable. At that time my sister and 3 brothers fought over the "holes", which were a perfect one-bite affair that always melted in our mouths. Those were the days!

MEMORIES AND FAVORITES

DIGNITY pastel SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR After the holidays, I begun to reminisce of people from my past.    Reflecting, I realize that life experiences have  enriched me greatly in so many ways.  Dignity is not only of a friend I lost touch with,  but also a personal, favorite painting that went to another home. Fond memories.... gone but not forgotten.
