jacaranda




  

jacaranda   48x48" thrown paint on canvas 2014

Beverly Hills artShow   2014

jacaranda has taken over two years to complete. not because it was a bad painting,  there have been more precise renderings of a tree, but none portrayed what i am trying to portray as an artist.
i throw paint. which lends a quality of chaos i wouldn't get if i applied it differently. it is in that chaos that i try to discover the essence of the subject matter, not the subject matter itself. the painting on top is an impressionist view of a jacaranda, not a photographic one.  i am an impressionist with an abstract technique. my work should reflect that. this jacaranda, with it's impasto texture, and pointillist nature now does just that.

Michael Poczkalski of Michael P Designs, NY
is helping to create a New York living room around the painting, cathy's beach, utilizing a radical step of painting the living room ceiling black to dramatize the effect of the painting. This artist could not be more honored.

i often times find myself  'adding' to an already complete canvas, out of boredom, the need to alter it,  to explore the process,  or just because i have no blank canvases available, large canvases can be fairly expensive and I don't always have them on hand.  if there were an unlimited supply of canvas, i would hope that i would just leave the 'finished' ones alone, and do further exploration work on a new canvas. however, i am not certain, even with the supplies, i would do so. 
i have a vision, one that i am not always privy to myself, until it hits (which does not always happen, there have been some ruined paintings and canvases). i am trying to catch the essence of an idea, not a photo realistic painting. A concept I don't always understand. i only know if i have captured it. 
  
below are a couple  of the incarnations of pink blossom tree (top). it needs to be finished now, if only because the paint itself is  getting quite heavy.
