ART AT 35 CHANNEL CENTER
Abstraction provides the expressive vocabulary for my response to the global, persistent conflicts, creating emotive landscapes. The genesis for my work is the urban environ, more specifically the night city, graffiti, demolition, fire, windows, fences and walls. Each painting undergoes a history of its own, as layers are added, scraped, overpainted, built and rebuilt — the paintings evolve from depiction to a personal, evocative terrain.

Babel
2024
Oil on Panel, Diptych
78” x 64”
$8000
Central to my work are apocalyptic stories, like Babylon’s vision of ‘the handwriting on the wall’ and the tower of Babel narrative. They have a contemporary echo in our world abounding with reoccurring images of violence and destruction.
Latice Quadrant
2026
Oil on Panel
36" x 36" each
$1000 each; $3500 for the series
Three of the four panels are exhibited in a line at 35 Channel Center. My work embraces the modularity of the grid, where multiple configurations can be created in response to the space.
In this series, the urban environ — windows, balconies, fences and walls — becomes the armature for an expressive vocabulary of paint, where forms are deconstructed and reconstructed into an expressive landscape.
Vestige: Quartet
2025
Oil on Panel
36" x 36" each
$1000 each; $3500 for the series
This series evokes vestiges — tangible reminders, fragments or remnants of what is past and gone. The window motif is repeated, built up and torn apart, blocking and revealing.
Sunder
2025
Oil on Panel, Diptych
30” x 40” each
$1600
Originally part of a quartet, these two panels converse with a shared visual language of patterns, color and drawing .... together, yet apart.
