2012/2016 Playa Summer Lake

27 Artworks

View
Paintings from residencies at Playa Summer Lake 2012 (4 weeks) and 2016 (2 weeks). In 2012 my goal for the residency was to move my work in a more abstract or intuitive direction. To explore painting the landscape in ways other than through representation. Notably, it resulted in a series of stripe paintings. Painting wet into wet oil to develop the colors I viewed in the landscape was a breakthrough - and continues to this day.

Some of the first paintings from photo reference. I began using acrylic in the studio and then switched to back to oil. I am still plein air painting - but for the first time I begin using photo references to capture wet, reflective streets. Additionally, my work begins to scale up.
