Art to Live With
Florals
I want my florals to convey the effortless beauty of nature but leave room for viewers to see other things: whether it be insects buzzing around, the sense of a breeze, dryness ... or simply serenity. Each painting seeks to create depth by combining wet-on-wet backgrounds with the use of the pallet knife for sharper, textured close-in images. Partially blended colors help make the paintings bright and increase the feeling of depth.
