BOULEVARD

BOULEVARD no.1

BOULEVARD is inspired by mid-20th century design using a colour palette that was inspired by the incredible set design of the show Hannibal which has an incredible moody and richly adorned mid century modern aesthetic. My ultimate goal with BOULEVARD was to create pieces that depict an abstract structural setting and mood. Prints of this series are available here

FREE FORM II

FREE FORM II no.4

As with the FREE FORM series that conveys and captures transparent vessels when layered against a bright backdrop, the FREE FORM II series is a kind of dusk version. Veiled as if by curtains this series is very tactile and monochromatic. As with the FREE FORM series it too conveys the absence of foreground and background and all elements have a serene and quiet interplay.

IN PIECES

IN PIECES no.23

This new series is titled IN PIECES and is created with architecturally textured quasi rectangular shapes which are drastically contrasted in form by the vibrant and perfect circles. Very mid century modern influenced and inpired.

SLOPE

SLOPE no.18

The SLOPE series is inspired by the Rocky Mountains, which are near to where I live. Each time I visit the mountains I am completely captivated and awestruck by its rugged beauty. Depending on the time of year and day, the shadows and colours shifting on the slopes makes each visit an incredibly unique experience.

PERCEPTION

PERCEPTION no.2

We all recognize objects and assign labels to those objects in order for us to be able to categorize and identify them. The PERCEPTION series is a play on that ability for us to distinguish one object from another.

FREE FORM

FREE FORM no.75

FREE FORM no.74

With the FREE FORM series I am trying to convey and capture that sense of overlapping and mingling of colours when translucent forms are layered against a bright backdrop. There is no sense of foreground or background and all elements work as a whole not allowing the eye to focus on any singular shape for long.

EBB

EBB no.13

I really like how artists incorporated natural materials such as raw linen and canvas in mid century modern art and these materials were often used as backgrounds for modernist ceramic reliefs and inked metal plaque etchings. I have a few pieces around the house that are like that and I really felt compelled to try and emulate that aesthetic yet also keep it fairly contemporary. Available here.

KITE

KITE no.26

Kite flying was always one of my most favourite pastimes when I was a kid. Later on in life as an adult I upgraded to stunt kites which are extremely thrilling to fly as they require quick reflexes and strength. These stunt kites usually come in bright and bold contrasting colours which was part of the inspiration for this series.
