Making Rash, 2021

This piece captures a frozen moment of tenderness and repose that is open to interpretation as it oscillates between the categories of figure and landscape.

The color palette was chosen to produce a disorienting effect since it twists the expected colors of skin, flowers and ground.

I designed this image on the iPad in early 2021. At the time I was all about making small, intimate works that could say a lot with very little.

What doesn’t show well in the picture? There is a pleasing textural contrast between the glossy red and the matte purple/brown.

Sir John Everett Millais

This painting depicts Ophelia, a character from William Shakespeare's play Hamlet, singing before she drowns in a river in Denmark.

Marsden Hartley

I’m struck by the graphic impact of Marsden Hartley’s paintings. He is able to create an excitingly charged picture through simple shapes and saturated colors.

Gary Hume

The color palette and use of hard edges in Gary Hume’s paintings are pleasing to me. The artist uses familiar shapes in unexpected colors and configurations to transport a commonplace subject into a new and fascinating psychological context.
