Artist Statement

My paintings celebrate the ordinary and the commonplace; an abandoned house, the detritus of nature and the elements of everyday life. They create an appreciation of texture and a delight in color. They are memories made visible.

I always thought using a grid was cheating.  In drawing class this week we saw their value. They are fun especially if you work on them upside down; you are surprised by the outcome.  Below are two.  "Johnny" was done for the most part in class and "Kate and Alex" I did at home.  Neither are perfect but I do see that their are possibilities in using this technique.

"Johnny" misses his pirate friends.
