“Color Field Experiment 1”
19”x24”
Acrylic on Bristol
Circles scraped through layers of color, pulled under a white veil. Fragments bleed back like faulty signals. More lab test than painting, the start of a series of experiments. #art

“Packing List, Lost”
19”x24” Asemic writing, acrylic, heavy gesso on bristol
Packing List, Lost asks what you carry when memory itself can’t be trusted. Part of Letters From The Futures, it reflects fragments, erasures, and the blank spaces where thought disappears—what survives the forgetting.

Here’s a quick update on the piece I’m working on. I’m trying to figure out how to tie the columns together in a way that flows well, but since each piece is a different size, and the stick that’s holding it all together isn’t straight it’s making it a challenge.

I had a bunch of old junk paper art pieces I’d worked on over the past few years that I had no plans for just sitting around collecting dust. I got an idea to chop em up and quilt them together. This is obviously still a work in progress. #abstractart #fragments #artfragments #recycle #upcycle #art

This was from a photo I shot many years ago. Out of my comfort zone here. Happy with the abstract composition but the execution—not so much. Acrylic and colored pencil on paper. #art #abstract #abstractcomposition #taxi #painting #selftaughtartist

Both on canvas. Both dragged, scraped, layered.
The first one makes noise; the second quiets things down a bit. Do they balance?

Get off my lawn!
If you joined Bluesky during the Beta, congratulations, you are now officially a Bluesky Elder! You will be assigned a rocking chair, a single cloud to shake a fist at, and a Chesty Gandalf Action Figure and/or Orca pool floatee while supplies last. Enjoy your new, completely inconsequential status!
