In the studio

8/15/2023

In the studio evaluating my latest series, Harmonia, large textured mono-stroke color field paintings.

Just received 5 cases of wine as partial payment for a painting commissioned for a winery's art collection, and which they used for the label (credited on the back). In the past 30 years commissions have gone to the likes of Sam Gilliam, Sol LeWitt, Kiki Smith, Terry Winters, Pat Steir and Ed Moses. The only requirement was to somehow incorporate their icon of the Parthenon into the painting. Very pleased to have been tapped for this, and I must say, the wine is most excellent!

Painting prize

9/19/2022

Honored to receive the Saara Parker Painting Prize for The Wilsons, 72" x 60", oil on canvas which has been on view all summer at the Fitchburg Art Museum's 86th annual juried exhibition. The painting is one of a series of life-sized surrealist portraits I'm painting exploring ideas of identity.

Winery Commission

8/5/2021

Here is a small commissioned painting I've made for the permanent collection at Imagery Estate Winery, which will also be used as a label on a select bottling of wine next year. The only request was that their icon of the Parthenon had to be in the painting somehow, whatever way I chose. Well, there it is!

Past commissions have gone to the likes of Sam Gilliam, Sol Le Witt, Kiki Smith, John Baldessari, Ed Moses, Pat Steir, Terry Winter and Ricardo Mazal, all artists I've studied and admired for years, so I'm quite honored to have been tapped for the gig!
