I paint people and landscapes that capture a moment and record a story in time. I paint oil & litho ink on canvas in my barn studio and also "en plein air". I am interested in how light and shadows play off of objects, social realism, everyday life. A lot of my work focuses on privilege and its effect on social conditions. I often paint impassto with loose brushstrokes and chunks of color. I try not to overpaint.

2023 Booth #11
I begin every painting in a naturalistic manner, painstakingly depicting as much detail as the hand and eye permit. After considerable care and control is given to grasp a clear image, I then introduce the element of chance into the work by mechanically and unsentimentally passing over the painting with a massive brush, what could be likened to the technique of sfumato. The consequence is that of revealing the fragility of things while erasing everything but what is important.
