I work in oils on linen canvas and linen panels in the simple and direct Alla Prima method.
Although my work is representational I am more interested in the “Story” of the scene and the “Plasticity”of the paint than in creating an exact representation of the subject.
I am currently involved with an ongoing project of documenting the city of Detroit in small oil paintings and have completed more than seventeen hundred painting of Detroit since 2007.
My urban landscape paintings are portraits of how we as a society have affected and continue to alter the environment around us. My paintings are the language I use to communicate the things I can not articulate.
