Recliners in Sand

  Recliners in Sand is part of a series that depicts the female figure reading.  I've rendered this concept in various scenarios.  The subway, park benches, and in nature.  The beach scenes are more challenging as I try to apply something different to the piece rather than just a literal interpretation.

Pulling Cart

  Pulling Cart is part of a series to do with the figure in conditions of hard labor.  I choose scenarios of coal mining, steel mills, and other jobs which can show the figure in an extreme physical struggle.  Usually, the scenes have dark background which add much drama to the painting.

Bandshell Steps

  Bandshell Steps is a larger work (24 x 30) based on a smaller work done about a year ago.  The figures are talking during a lunch break while sitting on the Bandshell Steps in Chicago's Millennium Park.  Although one wouldn't be able to identify it by the background colors.  The intention is to focus on the figures and let the emotions of the color tint the mood of their conversation.

Ripples

  Ripples is part of a series focusing on beach scenes.  I like to keep the figures as simple as possible in order for them to blend with the ocean and sand.  These paintings teeter between landscape and figural.
