Meditation Series: (6/6) More Nature-Inspired Designs, LA 2024
Underlying the watercolors is an ink sketch of some thick pine bark. I overlaid the outline of a lady slipper flower formation on the bark to create a complex of textures. The water soluble black ink ran when I applied the watercolors (which accounts for some of the muddiness in the piece). All things considered, […]
Meditation Series: (4/8) Luthier Storefront, NYC (1989)
New Year’s Eve is a time for reflection. The violin is a symbol of my youth, and early times in my original family’s life. I miss everyone from back then.

Please visit my Etsy shop for my artwork for sale inspired by my autistic brother […]
Meditation Series: (8/8) The Palladium (1989)
I had no clear idea of what I wanted to do in the final sketch of this series. The first thing that came to mind was the search lights, prominent in the Palladium mural. I thought of the magnifying glass effect and used it to amplify and diminish the name of the building. The half curtain […]
Meditation Series: (8/8) Exterminator Chili, NYC (1989)
