My oil on linen painting "The Music of Time" is set in Big Sur, California at dusk. A woman gazes out as the sun gilds the ocean. A haze of light and color surrounds the figure like an aura of time.
Notes on Technique:
Ghosts of earlier ideas appear within my artworks and combine with other transparent moments to create a semblance of movement, of time passing. I build a combination of shadow and illumination in each painting to create a sensation of light emanating from the work. I work with oil paint and usually create at least one color in each painting from ground pigments mixed by hand with linseed oil. Linseed oil has the propensity to grow more transparent with age and visible traces of earlier painted marks gradually appear because of this tendency - called pentimenti. I embrace this eventual outcome in my work and incorporate planned and unplanned pentimenti in my process.
"The Music of Time" is painted with the finest quality oil paints on Belgian linen. The artwork is ready to hang.
