A brief thought about my paintings.
My paintings can be categorized as abstract, but with
a reference to realism. The subjects come from
magazines and newspapers, this allows me to continue
to portray the contemporary world as I see it.
The grid flows spontaneously and freely over the
surface of the canvas, with lines of specific
dimensions related to the size of the canvas. Some
have interpreted this criss-cross of lines to be
similar to the paintings of Brice Marden. The
difference is that he paints these lines going around
the canvas and going over the other lines of different
colors.
My lines, as they flow, tell a story, a real
story. You can look inside these lines and follow to
the next intersection, something realistic appears.
You can stop and actually see what it is, then
continue on to the next stop and something else will
appear. So looking at my paintings from a distance the
overall grid pattern is abstract, but looking at them
close up, you can see very realistic forms inside.
I would define my work as : Hyper-Realistic
Abstractions.
