SARASOTA, FL
My paintings tread the path between realism and abstraction. In my current series of Passacaglia, I explore people in motion. Often they are people walking on the street, flat against the picture plane, in long, narrow canvases reminiscent of scrolls. I also study the movement of dancers in action.
I grew up in an international life, living in South America, the UK, as well as the United States. I graduated in Fine Arts from Pratt Institute and found my way into painting book cover art for major publishers. Having painted as an illustrator and as a gallery artist for a very long time, my challenge is to focus my technical ability on a coherent direction.
I am currently in three galleries around the US and am working on an upcoming solo show, titled, A Tapestry of Movement, which is opening in November at Art Center Manatee in Bradenton, FL.
