📮Postcards from the Edge ... of Restraint
These works begin with pure abstraction—color fields, temperature gradients, and architectural echoes. As the series unfolds, suggestion creeps in: a horizon implied, a mountain range remembered, maybe even a windmill. They’re not scenes but faded memories.
Some are rooted in Palm Springs light and lore, while others drift toward imagined atmospheres where civic signage and cul-de-sacs overlap. These aren’t the souvenirs you buy, but the ones you remember.
After working in monochromatic and bi-chromatic compositions, I set out to create a tri-chromatic compositional fugue—six pieces, each built from three dominant hues. The structure is quiet but deliberate: every color appears once at the bottom, once in the middle, skips a beat and then once at the top across the series. This embedded rhythm creates a visual cadence, a kind of chromatic choreography

I'm combining my love of color, theatre, music, math and POOLS!
