Painting-July



I have been working on two new series back to back in my new studio space this past month.

The 350 Series which is limited to only the colors black and white and grey...I am enjoying what a limited color palette is bringing to my work.

I am also working on a new series of abstract paintings...somehow switching back and forth from black and white to vivid color is helping me explore color in a new way.

"350 SERIES"




I am starting a new series of paintings based on the number 350. This number is relevant to the environment 350 parts per million of Co2 in the earth's atmosphere. Right now we are approximately reaching around 380 parts per-million in the atmosphere. This body of work is my expression and action of raising awareness about our carbon reduction plan as a whole people. As an artist I am always inspired by nature in my work and feel blessed to experience the beauty of the world around me and want future generations to be able to experience nature, as we know it as well.
