Introduction

"Vertical Horizon"
Original Watercolor
$3900 20½ x 14 |
My
approach to watercolor has always been non-traditional. Although
traditional washes are an integral part of the painting process, I
depend more on the layering of color through the technique of glazing
and drybrush (color applied with a brush squeezed almost dry of
moisture). Moving between dry and wet on the same piece of paper
achieves a variety of complimentary thick and thin surfaces. This allows
for the luminous quality of watercolor with added depth of color and
texture.

"Welcome Light"
Original Watercolor
SOLD $1900 12
x 8 |
Light
plays an essential role in my paintings. It is as if the subtle or
dramatic interplay of light and shadow become the subject more than the
objects themselves. Light reveals the character, color, and texture of
landscapes and buildings. The alternation of lighted and shadowed planes
produces a powerful repeated patter.

"Quiet Afternoon"
Original Watercolor
$4200 20½ x 14 |
Subject
matter has always been of paramount importance to me, especially with its
tendency to come unexpectedly. Quiet, patient observation will almost
always reveal the life of a subject, although frequently, the focus of my
initial impression will change through the course of a painting. The
paintings’ titles offer clues to the experiences behind an inspiration.
As
one of the artists that I most admire, Andrew Wyeth, once said,
“Catching the essence of a subject, without turning it into a picture,
is the most important thing to me.”
