New Mixed Media Small Works







Recently I created a new group of mixed media small works and exhibited them at Gallery Route One in Point Reyes Station, California. By limiting the size of the pieces, I was able to experiment with a more painterly approach than normal. These pieces will serve as prototypes for a new group of mixed media works for a solo show at Gallery Route One that will run from February 24th through April 1, 2012.
The new works cover the same subjects I've used in the past - abandoned, re-purposed, or underutilized rural and urban vernacular buildings. From photographs taken on peripatetic drives on secondary roads across the USA and Canada, I've amassed a trove of pictures of buildings and landscapes that will serve as subject matter for many years to come. Because of health issues, I haven't taken as many road trips in the last year or two, so have gone back to older images to use as inspiration.
Enjoy the new work, and send me a note if you'd like to see more.
