Ceramic tiles and polished rocks work together in this design depicting the flow of water and sea plants surrounding this graceful fish…each piece meticulously bonded to the surface. Finished with black grout for contrast!
This simple charcoal drawing on black paper is backlit by iridescent pigment and poured with a layer of resin. An electric blue accent surrounds the recessed panel of the frame; the eye is drawn to the jewel that adorns the ear of this lovely subject!
Patterns of light and shadow create contrast and “invite” the viewer further into the piece. When painting, I remind myself that I am expressing the scene, not reporting it—so as not to get lost trying to capture every minute detail!
The movement of wind is expressed by grooves of varied depth. A small but tactile piece that features high gloss and matte glaze for further contrast and interest.
This abstract landscape features copper leaf peeking through layers of varied wood veneer. This creates depth and texture, and catches the light beautifully!
This mixed media piece features hand hammered copper strips, various washers, screws, lamp parts and rivets. Embroidery hoops are used as the wheels, and the seat and handlebars have leather accents. Wrapped wire pulls the whole thing together! Fastened to a matte black birch panel.
