Portfolio Artist Statement Online Information ![]() running color #3 Polymer, pigment on cast acrylic, 6x50" ![]() assuage Polymer, pigment on cast acrylic, 18x18" I strive for a heavy aesthetic with an emphasis on color and transparency pulling from the sublime in nature; bringing an elemental and ethereal, but playful energy into my work. I am interested in eschewing the traditional nature of painting by pushing it beyond the common substrates of canvas and panel and onto unusual surfaces; and to utilize unconventional and uncommon painting methods and techniques to achieve my objective. Specifically, I use transparent, borderless supports for the purpose of putting the viewer's attention solely on the painting sans distractions. I also pour the paint instead of using brushes or palette knives.
I like the idea of a pliable definition of painting. |
