Description
Work on the flower series began in 1999 and came about from a desire to find an iconic approach to my painting.
Here the painting process was swift, vigorous, and taken directly from nature. To create these works, I began by setting down the background color using a mixture of ivory black, burnt sienna, and alizarin crimson. Immediately following, the foreground image was applied before the background color had dried, thus capturing the action of the brush.
Compositionally, the works are rather simple. The initial intent was for the viewer to be able to visually dissect the work, to take it apart stroke by stroke.
