The painting process consists of layering pools of paint repeatedly, resulting in large ribbons of intertwined color and texture that create an energetic color field. From start to finish, the process involves pouring pools of pigment onto the canvas, mimicking natural forms such as puddles, moving tides, melting ice, rock intersections, and more.
The outdoor series employs the same technique but applied directly to the landscape, where un-stretched canvas is dragged across various terrains. The ridges of the ground underneath create unexpected marks on the canvas, which are then re-worked in the studio. I stretch, cut, and sometimes leave the canvases as raw as possible.
The print series features cropped images taken from larger pieces that are still in progress. These portions of the canvas might capture wet paint during the pouring process, or the canvas might be folded around a rock, each resulting in enigmatic patterns.
I live and work on the Northshore of MA & create mostly at my studio in Rockport, MA & sell out of the Gallery in the front at 65 Bearskin Neck. — showcasing originals, prints & curated handmade goods from local artists!
