New Paintings

I have been exploring the personality of paint by layering acrylic paint, papers and a variety of other textural surfaces. I have combined this with surrealistic conceptual works that delve into astrology and symbolism. Feel free to let me know what you think. Taurus (24 x 36) is about my sign and how I feel about it, Once the Bird is Released (16 x 20) refers to the symbol of a bird released in a painting referring to a woman releasing her innocence and She Has Always Danced With Fire (18 x 24) while an erotic work is also related to Native American culture.

Exercise in Texture and Space

In an effort to allow texture to create tension, I have limited my palette and included a variety of material. Overlapping along with vertical and horizontal placement reinforces some of the spatial depth.
