Palimpsest II – an exhibition
Exhibition Announcement
Palimpsest II was an exhibition during the spring of 2014; it explored the relationship between my paintings, photographs, and etchings. Evidence of time is embedded in the surfaces that have been worked and reworked, sometimes for years, whether in a painting or captured in a photograph. My Palimpsest paintings and etchings were first exhibited with Judy Ireland and Marcia Brookbank at their IXL Gallery on Portrero Hill in San Francisco. This is the first time photographs were exhibited together with the paintings and etchings. Some of the artworks can now be viewed here or on my Tumblr blog.

Light on Dry Paint
An arrangement of light on color and shape in shallow space. A picture I refer to as watching light on dry paint. Like many of my compositions, it took several attempts to arrange and capture the elements in the right balance and relationship to each other, beginning with the placement of the foreground object to set up the depth of the space, and dividing the shapes into horizontal and vertical forms. Sharp focus contrasts against the soft out of focus cool color which emerges from the warmth of the shadows. Another version is included in the Urban Notes post.
