Close-Ups​
As I have developed as an artist, one thing that has remained constant in my work: my interest in details – in the small, seemingly insignificant things that make up a part of our everyday lives; details that, in a sense, make up who we are, both individually and as a people. I enjoy painting something that someone may have looked at a hundred times but has never really seen. These details, seen up close and painted with care and detail, may make someone pause and begin to appreciate the beauty around them.
​
These paintings represent this interest, beginning with more recent paintings, and continuing back to when I first began painting in this style. The sizes and shapes of the paintings have changed and developed over the years, but the details - textures, shapes, colors, imperfections - remain.
