Mistral 17
Acrylic on Birch Panel in MDF
16 x 16 x .75 in.
The Mistral series draws inspiration from the cold waters of Ladys Cove (Marblehead, Massachusetts) at low tide. Amongst the abstract splotches hides a lady crab (Ovalipes ocellatus) smaller than the nail on a pinky finger. The paintings explore personal perspective, influence, indifference, and our place in a broader world.
Splotches of different sizes and shapes result from varying the paint viscosity. Isolation coats alternate with paint layers to create visual and physical depth. A circular frame completes the piece, painted after the tondo is finalized to ensure harmony of color and composition. Paintings by Boucher and Fragonard and plastic sculptures by Brent Hayden influence the color palette. The surface of the painting is highly glossy, the result of meticulous varnishing.
