'I paint the skies with peace and passsion, because that's the way they paint me.'\\I am a painter specializing in skyscapes. \\I work in many different mediums - watercolor, oil, acrylic and refractured watercolors - or watercolor collage and mixtures of the above. \\The refractured watercolor medium is all transparent watercolor on watercolor paper. I paint each sky or water reflection sometimes up to five times, depending on the size I am working to. Each variant is in slightly different colors and because it is wet in wet it is always a little different each time. Then I cut them and collage back together. I mount on panel and protect with layers of clear acrylic coating, so they don't need to be framed. The size limitation is the largest a panel can be created - 8'x4'. Diptychs and triptychs can be created for larger installations. I don't know that anyone else currently works in this way.\ \Each kind of paint offers different possibilities and has different strengths and restrictions. I also love working on different surfaces such as wood, metal or fiberglass, and as a muralist I also get to work on wood siding, stucco, cinder block and drywall. \\For durable installations, images can be transferred to tile, glass, acrylic or metal.\\I do murals locally in Southern CA and Western AZ and commissions anywhere it can be shipped! \For commissions I will consider almost any subject and have in the past painted tie-dye and the words of a song. I can work with ideas or photographs and in formats designed to fit unusually shaped spaces. I also paint birds and will consider other pets, but sorry, I don't do people portraits.
