Leigh Collection


                                Lilacs     5x11'     thrown and splattered paint on canvas       2023


The Leigh Collection. The largest painting in the collection, 5x11' This one embraces the room, which has floor to ceiling windows in the wall to the right of this painting. It was a bit overcast this day, so we did not get the play of light on the canvas, that I would have liked to see. Fortunately, overcast days are few and far between in Los Angeles, so the owner, gets to enjoy the play of light across this field , most days.

Beverly Hills ArtShow 2023 Is Anyone There?

 

Is Anyone There?           48x30"           thrown, splattered and dry brushed              2023

Is Anyone There?  is an outlier painting, meaning it is outside my general scope of work. Outliers, are paintings that have been overworked, and can no longer be 'thrown' on with any accuracy. I take these paintings and drip excess paint, for texture, then dry brush the results. Studio painting.

Borders of Blue           36x24"            thrown and splattered paint on canvas               2022

Borders of Blue is one of five paintings from my Borders series. The same technique is used with this style painting, the exception being, that I have blocked the background paint to give precise lines. It is an attempt to capture the chaos of the throws. The binding gives an even more opulent look to the layers of paint. Borders of Blue is represented by Rebecca Molayem Gallery, Los Angeles. Two other paintings in this style, in varying colors and sizes, are represented by Adelman Fine Arts, San Diego.
