A taste from the Art Guild show About Face, at the Sanchez Art Center June 5 – June 27, 2021

The Birds, Acrylic and India Ink on Canvas, 20”x18”
How does the artwork relate to the theme of the show?

Waves Redux, Acrylic on Canvas, 20”x10”
I had been painting and drawing wave patterns and then I realized that the opposite directions of the waves represented a returning effect.
What is the most important artist tool that you use in your practice?
I think of design as a foremost tool in creating a composition. In the creative phase of an artwork, design helps incorporate perspective, proportion, balance, form and color for an aesthetic theme. To me design is the blueprint of an artwork as it helps guide the compositional flow and organizes form.
Do you have any upcoming projects that you would like to share?
