Profile Information

So you like the Hygienic. Why is that?
I stopped in and loved what I saw. I'd love to show with you and dropped off a book with images from Bodice Of The Goddess.
Are you an artist?
yes
if yes, what is your medium?
Mixed Media: oil pant, found objects, resin, ink
have you shown in the annual Hygienic Art Salon des Independants? What years?
No. But I would like to.

I love every aspect of the art business, especially creating works and going to openings for my exhibitions and other artists as well. Art, chatting, wine. There just isn't anything better.

The work I have been doing reflects my love and concern for the environment of bodies of water intermingling imagery, histories, legends and river science. Many of my images appear to look like aerial photographs or topographical maps. They are in fact dimensional mixed media “paintings” which use many traditional and non-traditional materials. My paintings evolve in multiple layers of latex, acrylic and oil paints, mica powders, objects, ground glass, patinas, chemical reactions, and ink, all embedded in layer upon layer of resin. Anything I find interesting or unusual is fair game. For me, resin is a metaphor for water. The layering of materials in resin is meant to make you feel as if you were seeing through water. Textures, cracks and other patinas are an important facet of my work and give the pieces a sense of history or story for the viewer to create. My paintings are like little bits of archeology digging through a multi-storied depth.

Your work is so rich. i love the aerial topography with depth that mixed media brings to it. I saw a show last year of a aerial photographer who did topographical work as well although he made his real topography fantastical and you made your imaginary topography real.
