In creating these new works, I fortunately am able to incorporate the best of two worlds. I combine my “Old Master” egg tempera and oil painting technique with digital printing, collage, and high flow paint. I also merge my proclivity for realism and control with my pension for multiple interpretations and chance. My intention is for a synergy to occur between tradition and experimentation, perhaps resulting in a fresh and unique perspective.
In creating portraits, I am acutely aware of the many aspects of individuals-both overt and mysterious. Moods are in constant flux, and each of us is challenged by circumstance. My hope is that these portraits honor these many complexities, as they honor those I have been able to portray.
Held 4 to 6 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 11 – signing only
