 | | Several years ago, I started my adventure into my Totem series. This style opened additional avenues to research and explore. The low surface gave me more space to impliment my interest in graphic shapes and the juxtaposition of colors.I am always thinking of color. |

A. Jeffrey Zigulis
Jeffrey Zigulis began his Dream Mask series as presents for schoolmates of his young son, Matthew. He told the children that the masks could help scare away bad dreams. |
 | | Painted Mask Series
I have long been infatuated with abstract painting. While in art school in California we studied all the great painters. Nothing touched me like the Abstract Expressionist Movement. |
 | | Money Series
My Money Series is the newest venture into interesting techniques that create a collage effect with the use of paper money from foreign countries. I use images of real money from all over the world. I cover the mask to build up a rhythm with colors and different graphic images found on the bills. |
 | | Japanese Paper Masks
My Japanese Paper Masks are an explosion of rich colors, delicious structure, and a collage effect that instantly draw you into their sophisticated style. While visiting a paper store in Berkeley, California I fell in love with “Washi” paper. I knew I had to find a way to use these beautiful sheets of magical color and stories. |
