Palette Twelve

Acrylic paint on canvas, 2016, 4"w x 4"h

The Palette painting series grew from noticing the way the bowl I mix my materials in started to look once a number of paint layers built up. Transferring the excess paint onto canvases became a way for me to capture these accidental compositions. There is truthfulness to my imagery that comes from a method of painting that challenges tradition. I paint in a way that once a mark has been made, it will not disappear. The speed at which I paint lends itself to a method that allows for no second judgments or overthinking marks that have been laid down.
