Hello, to all, from where ever you may be, thank you for joining me. This is my first post, on my first blog, i hope that it may produce much good news, and inspire you.
This series of paintings is indicative of the development of my work. I have become attached to the observation of the natural environment. This series has to do with a group of flowers, nine total, which i encountered while gardening on East 4th St. in New York City; on the block where my studio resides.
All the canvases are stretched around wider pieces of framing to have a box effect, and a few of them are created from recycled wood. Each canvas frame is 7x7in.
All the backgrounds are constructed with shades of phthalo green and gold. i have used various medias such as graphite, ink, acrylic, and oil, to acheive the effects.
enjoy the power of the garden...
when we meet again: 4 canvases from one west coast adventure
