An Abstract Practice

I have always loved the work of the Abstract Expressionists. This very American of art movements moved away from the representational recreation of a still life or landscape or portrait. What was important to them was the expression of emotion on the canvas through movement, mark-making, brush strokes, and color. Abstraction allows viewers to see what they need to see and feel what they need to feel. I myself have been moved to tears standing in front of an Elaine deKooning wall sized painting.
You will find a common denominator in my photographic art, my paintings, and my collages; they are all colorful and abstract.
Please enjoy my galleries and feel what you need to feel.
