My New Abstract Painting: Locomotion
This abstract painting titled “Locomotion” explores the idea that we have superimposed manmade speed and noise over the natural landscape, and while bright and engaging in its own way, the native beauty it rushes past becomes obscured. Are we on a runaway train with very little view from the window? This painting was done … Read more

Two New Abstract Paintings
I’m not totally thrilled with these, but I share them as stepping stones in my process. I tried out some new ideas here, some of which worked and I’ll explore further, and some of which I’ll let drop. I am in an expansively experimental phase in my artwork and have a zillon ideas I want … Read more

Today’s Painting
I painted this today. The horizontal orientation is how I painted it, but after the fact, I thought it could go vertical as well (see below). It is bigger than usual for me, painted in acrylic on a stretched canvas 24” x 36”. It is also a little more angular than my usual more fluid … Read more
My New Painting
A photo of the full painting is below. The rest of the photos are close-up shots of details. What I liked most about this painting (besides that it was fun to do!) was all the paintings within it, so enjoy the details as well, as actual compositions in themselves.
