| "Art is nature seen through a temperament"
(Emile Zola)
I am a self taught mixed media and collage artist. My mixed media paintings are created using acrylic, gouache, oil pastel, opaque ink, china marker, colored pencil, and acrylic textural mediums. My collages include acrylics, acrylic mediums, deli paper, aluminum foil, cheesecloth, stamping foil, and decorative beads, jewels and other objects and materials for embellishment.
I am attracted to African, South American, and Persian art. The direction and development of my style has been greatly influenced by the work of Henri Matisse, Gustav Klimt, Frida Kahlo, and Alice Neel.
My work is characterized by its textural quality, rich, bold, and often metallic or iridescent color, with a focus on pattern, design, decorative elements and embellishments. I often paint solely from imagination, and have begun to integrate religious and cultural symbols into my compositions.
Interiors, figures, and portraits are the primary subjects... |
