Fall 2007 Update

Welcome back. This season I'm working BIG. My new work is still watercolor on paper, but I'm working on full-size sheets. While working larger than I'm used to brings on some interesting challenges, I have to say that I'm please with the way the work is coming out. I thought it would be interesting to play with contradictions, so the new work I'm showing are a series of close up paintings of familar San Francisco landmarks.

Spring 2007 Update

I'm back in the studio again. I've made some changes to the space and am pleased with the nice white walls that replaced the dark wood paneling. I'm finishing up a series of Tessellated Paintings just in time for Spring Open Studios at Hunter's Point Shipyard. This series was strongly influenced by the mosaics I saw in Rome last summer. In addition to this busy weekend, you can see my art up in Petaluma at the Aurora Colors Gallery from April 28 - May 26 for their May Day exhibit, showcasing All Things Bright and Beautiful. They are located at 145 Kentucky street in downtown Petaluma.

Winter 2007 Update

Thanks for stopping back. I've settled down again this winter. It was a lot of fun traveling to Italy to visit family near Bari and to spend more time in Rome. I'll have some different work to show this spring. Influenced by the stained glass and mosaic tilework I saw in Italy, I am working with watercolor and gouache on paper to create my own interpretation of mosaics and silk paints and dyes on chinese silk to make silk stained glass. Check back from time to time to see some sneak peeks available in my online gallery.
