Coming up Roses

Last night I attended the opening of a community art show at the Garden (formally known as the R.A.T)

I had the good fortune of showing some of my newest pieces amongst some very lovely work. If you are in the area I highly recommend stopping in Y

"Revolt"

8".10"

Oil on Wood

"Revolt" is a beacon calling to inner light in a time when force of spirit encounters smothering oppositions so steadily. The French Revolution is a roaring flame that lights the path of those in need of uprising. For me personally I feel this is a time for an inner revolution and a restructuring of values that align with the earth, to harness sustainable energy resources both inner and outer. "Revolt" is now available in my shop

"eve"

"Eve" is not finished yet but I wanted to share what I have been working on.

I have been focusing a lot lately on the balance between realism and gesture. One one hand I seek a polished quality in my work, allowing the image to speak clearly. Yet on the other, I believe sincerity is sacrificed in the refining process. I feel it is difference between listening to a prepared academic dissertation and a brokenhearted bar stool conversation. I would like to find a place for both grit and grace to live in harmony in my work.
