Contemplations

This series of paintings explore artistic transformation and ways of making the landscape genre fresh and original by combining my paintings with unexpected juxtapositions of floral imagery. The unexpected is important to me and parallels the hope that I will discover something new from my paintings. My works recall the powerful effect of O’Keeffe’s more representational renderings and the mysterious luminosity of Ross Bleckner’s large-scale, powerful, hypnotic paintings. Blending the landscape with recognizable symbols, I strive to recreate meditations on perception, transcendence and what meaning these images could convincingly hold in our times.
