Prairie :: 2009-13
In the fall of 2009, I wandered around in the yard shooting photos of the fall colors in our prairie, which became these paintings. But more than just pretty pictures of plants and colors, these paintings speak of the painfully slow and cold winter and my yearning to be free of it. Maybe you have the similar issues.
And now, in 2013, the story continues!
Formally, I’m having a blast just exploring the shapes of leaves and plants, and experimenting with color. I’m also really happy to be working on wood panels. The hard surface lends itself well to my brand of impasto.
