Imaginary Grasp

Imaginary Grasp

19″ x 24.5″ – Oil on Aluminum

This painting is a good example of my use of multiple figures and faces to create a more complex composition. Two moments viewed at the same time, appear like a memory or a dream. This fleeting moment illustrates the frailty of our existence and the complexity of our being. None of us can be defined by a singular moment in time. Our thoughts and dreams are shaped by life’s complexities.

Swipe through the images to see my painting process. I often begin with a graphite drawing, then apply an initial underpainting layer. This is thinned with Liquin and applied as one monotone color, or multiple colors that directly relate to the final piece.
