When you’re in the studio painting, there are a lot of people in there with you – your teachers, friends, painters from history, critics… and one by one if you’re really painting, they walk out. And if you’re really painting YOU walk out. Philp Guston
When making my artwork I am constantly struggling to achieve this state. I sketch frequently to develop ideas for new work. But most of my work reflects a dance between intention and discovery. I keep experimenting with the materials to find more “Ah Hah!” moments.
The first time I started misting paint over the horizontal surface of a painting was one of those magical moments. The fascinating textures and subtle changes of colors reflected the images of growth and change that I see in nature, from the incredibly tiny to the impossibly vast.
As luscious as the initial fields of textures and colors are, I resist the urge to leave them that way; I need to create some movement or excitement. I use image editing computer programs to play with initial images of the new work. With ideas for where I want to take the piece, I head back down to the studio to start defining the work. I continue photographing each stage and walking the tightrope between control and abandon.
A lifetime of observing nature leads me to work with biomorphic forms. The images that arise are usually ambiguous.
I hope you enjoy allowing your mind to play as you experience this work as much as I did in creating it.
living with art
Our intention is to broaden the exposure of art to people who wouldn’t otherwise go to a traditional art gallery. This experience helps to inform the idea of living with art. Showing you, our visitor, how the presence of art transforms everyday living into a richer experience. We hope that our creative environment inspires you in your own home.
Exploring the connection between Fine Art and Interior Design makes us unique. We celebrate the vibrant energy that emerges when visual art and interior design intersect. With each exhibition we intentionally mix artwork with our modern upholstery, carefully crafted case goods, and accessories to create inspiring room vignettes with a distinctive aesthetic
