Works on Paper

“House”, is a graphic inspired work that explores the dichotomy of houses as symbol for one’s emotional attachment to places and people. Deeper underlying feelings are in conflict with the straightforward artifice of the monopoly style house images. One house is stable in a cloud like environment the other darker moving off a stable center.

This work is oil and encaustic on paperboard. Various pieces of paperboard are fused together with hot wax. The irregular shape is the results of the combined shapes that are left to become a one-of-a-kind silhouette. The surface of the painting is then built up with hot wax, pigment and found objects. In this work the found objects are obscured, remaining embed beneath the wax and paint. Oil paint is then dripped over the work further obscuring the wax and object. The resultant work is a dynamic textured image.
