My paintings are about the beauty of fully saturated colors, their reaction to each other and the profound effect viewing them has on us all. I strive to create colors that vibrate against each other while making subtle changes in hue that seem to cause flat space to bend.
I work to give each painting a sort of “proud-chested” feeling. This is accomplished by not allowing the subject to completely fit on the canvas and by altering the viewpoint and perspective, creating a feeling of iconic architecture.
It’s the architecture of buildings redefined by the use of vivid color that define my collection of Pop Constructivist-style paintings called Architectural Portraits.
