The Way We Live

Every new project brings new decisions: material, content, whim-vs-body. This latest project came from three things. 1) Having worked in only paper for years, I missed painting, and being something of a masochist, I decided oil paint was too easy. I've switched to watercolors. 2) The last chapter of my paper cut-out series focused on architecture, my secret passion. 3) Having traveled to seven countries in two years, I've fallen in love with all the different ways we live. It started with scenic sea-scapes out of a sense of nostalgia, and then it's opened to urban areas in lands I'll never see, places I only read about in the news, places I wished didn't have to exist.
These detailed, small watercolors have afforded me a space to explore and to meditate. We are all in this together.

PuzzleelzzuP

PuzzleelzzuP is a paper cutout project in which I work both positively and negatively, physically as well as within space. I take my inspiration from various architectural styles and film stills from censored Hollywood.

Lonely Tower / 808

Reducing my palette and tools to black, white and red paper, I explored space in terms of architecture, as narrative, and as pretty places for my imagination to play. Utilizing the evolution of art history, these pieces began as crude little illustrations and then evolved into sophisticated and almost completely abstract structures.
