A Conversation on Mortality on a Monday Afternoon
My final painting critique for the semester is now in the books and I present the culmination of all of my work. I learned a lot in this class and also plenty about myself. What next directions will I take? I am hoping to get in some more painting on my own time before theContinue reading “A Conversation on Mortality on a Monday Afternoon”
Nocturne
This summer has been all about pools in my paintings and I am now at a point where I need to decide what my final project will be.

As an absurdist art project, the idea wasContinue reading “The Honour Project”
Deep Space
So far, art school is about as stressful as regular school. Projects are challenging, sometimes frustrating, and can be full of happy accidents. I had my first painting crit of the semester this evening for my deep space project. To say that creating this work was a struggle is an understatement, but many of myContinue reading “Deep Space”
A New Year and New Opportunities
It has been a while since my last post and plenty has happened since then. Life has come full circle, as I have returned to art school to finish what I started 19 years ago. Talk about full circle again: 19 years ago in London, I went to the Chagall exhibit at the Royal Academy.Continue reading “A New Year and New Opportunities”
