continuing the trends of previous years, my new work speaks of people
and animals that we all love and places that we all know. inevitably, my new
landscape paintings look towards hope in the face of endings and loss. several
of my new acrylic paintings reflect a series of long horizontal water colors
completed in new Mexico, summer of 2011. several paintings exhibited in
this show were started plein air and finished in the studio. i continue to
use the simple folded form as a basis for my sculptures. in January 2012, i
began using plastic and styrofoam containers. the sculptures are abstract
but figurative in nature, evoking familiar friends, children and animals.
ending a biannual tradition that started in 1997, this show will be my last home
exhibition. this summer, i am moving on to an apartment adjacent to my
studio as my son and his family move into the big house. as this tradition draws
to a close, i am pleased to have william reaves gallery representing my work.
