bagel, knife, 4×6in, acrylic on panel -sold-

sometimes i see just how far i can push the lighting – to see if i can make something read well, even as it just appears out of the murk.


baked beans, 4×6in, acrylic on panel -sold-

usually, i'm imagining the way a Caravaggio or Rembrandt might have been illuminated a few centuries ago.


ice cream, 6×6in, acrylic on panel -sold-

so when i overheard this during a recent opening, it tickled me so much i almost laughed out loud: "it looks like someone snuck down to the kitchen for a midnite snack…(other voice) yeah, or like it's being lit by an open fridge door." (not sure if it was about the ice cream, but that's a good a midnight craving as any.)


candy, 4×6in, acrylic on panel -sold-

other best line, overheard, about the candy – "it almost looks like it's being abducted." (it's not like i was painting reese's pieces)

these works were all part of the flinn gallery show that closed last week. gotta buncha updates – including the studio move – coming in the next post.
