Rainbows & Unicorns Painting

This painting is ready to hang. Painted on stretched canvas and ships in a box and are also available for prints on paper. They were inspired by the many rainbows and wonderful sites I experienced along my trip across the U.S.A. this past year! My work portrays my observations—as an artist and a human being—of the deep connection between plants and animals and the ecosystems in which they thrive. Each painting and sculpture draw inspiration from the idea that everything in nature is connected to everything else. My process begins with a wide range of mediums including found and recycled objects, which come from my interest in making new use from someone else’s discarded things. I’ve always had a passion for building and taking things apart. It’s not uncommon for me to be bending metal, mixing cement, and cutting wood, the groundwork for both two and three-dimensional pieces. I explore space and form by intertwining gestural marks and drawings with thick layers of paint and subtle transparencies, leading to the intersection of abstraction and the natural world. During the painting process, I am mapping out the underlying paint layers, collage, and drawing mediums. While some of this process is predetermined, other aspects arrive organically through subtracting and adding, carving, and peeling away paper and paint to reveal earlier parts of the work. As I manipulate paint on the canvas, the compositions begin to encompass a journey through a multitude of layers that combine unconventional methods, gradually revealing a history of spatial interpretations as the final piece emerges. The resulting multi-layered abstract canvases are metaphors for survival and hope, they serve as windows into natural landscapes and urban environments, with pollution and consumerism hanging at the edges. My works are metaphors for survival and hope. They attempt to elevate everyone’s awareness of our involvement as human beings in our world’s case for eco-sustainability.
