a small abstract landscape


A series that initially started from my head, and then I just tried to stay with the characters, some collage, some drawing, some a combination of the two. Sizes vary from 18x24 to life size.

finally

Been a while, these are done from life, or from my head, or a combination of the two.
Most are 24x36 or bigger, on paper. Ink, charcoal, gesso, and collage, painted with house painting brushes.






























In these bottom two, the figures are life size or bigger.

Nicolas de Stael

All my life, I had a need to think painting, to paint in order to liberate myself from all the impressions, all the feelings, and all the anxieties of which the only solution I know is painting.

Another artist worth looking at that I'm really into at the moment...

Susanna Coffey

Another interesting artist that I got turned on to that I think is worth looking at. She's currently showing at the NY Studio School, another great place worth checking out too.

NY Trip

Phone pics from my last day in NY.

Morandi

I just went to NY for my birthday, well not specifically for my birthday, but on my birthday for a class trip to see the Morandi show at the Met. He's considered a painter's painter by all the teachers I've had out here so I thought I'd mention something about the show, and you can decide for yourself.
