Recent Work- I've been keenly influenced and fascinated by the Color Field Movement throughout my career. This body of work seeks to make bold statements on colour, fluidity, experimentation and the surrendering of control. These pieces are post-painterly in nature and document the process itself.
Simplistica Series- These pieces were created and executed both physically and conceptually from the standpoint of clarity. Although they are not minimal in either a classical or contemporary sense, there is a deliberate reductive nature to these compositions.
Elevation Series- These pieces were painted in a reactionary way both technically and with the use of materials and media. Mood, expression and action combine to create a spontaneous imprint of a moment captured in time.
Saltation Series- Aesthetically this series displays both a technical and a conceptual departure, as compared to past series'. The Saltation Series explores metaphysically the notion of dreams, dimensional space and deeper levels of consciousness.
Ethereal Series - I felt compelled to paint a series of that was visually translucently obscure, where serenity dwells in a celestial, delicate, intangible way.
Elemental Series - I was motivated to create a series of paintings that extracted the vibrational energy of nature. It was my intention to create a body of work that pictorially rises up and levitates above the material, concrete world.
Multiple Horizon - I deliberately and intentionally changed direction in this series. My life at the time was chaotic and these works both consciously and intuitively helped ground me cathartically.
Synesthesia Series - As a synesthete it seemed to be a natural progression to create a series of atmospheric works that celebrated colour and depth in the non-objective fashion. These paintings find their origin from the metaphysical realm.
Spectrum of Light- This series in many ways is a continued celebration of light and colour and the relationship colour and depth play on the picture plane. It was important for me to surrender a degree of control and allow the essence of the world around me to flow freely onto the canvas.
Field of Colour- I began painting what is now called the "Field of Colour" series in 2013. In a sense the series consists of a large group of stained surfaces that were mainly influenced by Abstract Expressionism and the Color Field Movement. I approached these canvases with spontaneity using colour, action, and expression as my statement.
