Cocktails & Airplanes at Mr A's - Paintings

Unavailable

Acrylic and paper on 1.5-inch gallery canvas. Colors and images wrap around the sides.

This piece had a different life before it became a custom piece. It started as a piece (with same name) that was entered and juried into a local gallery exhibit celebrating San Diego, which prompted my 2016 “San Diego Love” series. Then it got a lot of attention when it made an appearance in a magazine, and found its perfect home when a designer saw it and knew her client had to own it. It was one of those “meant to be” situations because her client’s home in Bankers Hill looks directly at Mister A’s restaurant and has sweeping views of San Diego and the airplanes flying in. I made some small changes and color tweaks, and this piece looked like it was made just for the dark gray wall it now lives.

"Capturing the everyday in abstract form."

All of my artwork is abstract with an organic, free-flowing nature…no hard lines or edges. My paintings are created intuitively, without any preconceived ideas or planned outcomes for the finished piece. I work in many layers, adding and subtracting until it reaches a certain balance and “feels complete”. Even though I work primarily with acrylic paint, I'm always exploring different styles, methods, mediums and substrates. Change is essential for me, in all areas of life, so I’m sure my work will continue to evolve as well.

My inspiration comes from the everyday world around me; these inspirations make their way to the canvas and tell a story. I usually start with a certain color palette, and as the layers develop, I let the colors, texture, marks and movement guide me. My hope is that each viewer can interpret their own story through this visual narrative.
