I have quite a few new paintings and sketches to post. Today I’m posting some more small painting-sketches. These could be considered studies for future larger works, but they are also (usually) little paintings or drawings in and of themselves.
The painting above is a further study into the basic organic forms I have been working with.

This is one of my recent acrylic sketches exploring the structure of those organic forms in my head that I am currently fascinated to understand: in these images of interconnected solids among voids in a space of ambiguous depth, how are the parts connected; what is attached to what, and where? I paint in order to see…
I should mention that I don’t think the color is completely accurate. Sigh!
See more of these little sketch-paintings in my Organics Gallery. And stay tuned for more in the not-too-distant future.

A little more persistence, a little more effort, and what seemed hopeless failure may turn to glorious success. — E Hubbard
The day after the opening of my solo show last October, I was thrilled to stumble on a somewhat new direction while doing some sketches, a direction that it seems I’ve been searching to find for the past few years. Too bad this didn’t quite materialize in time for my show, but I’m sure the approximately hundred pieces of art I created last year prior to the show helped lead the way.
