I’ve been working on these small studies lately as a warm up before diving into large works in the studio. I’ve found that the shift in scale keeps me experimenting . I appreciate the challenge - everything changes when you go from a 6 inch drawing to a 8 ft canvas- the medium, approach to surface and physical body movements.
Today’s my partner, @chase.mcbride’s birthday. Chase, you’re thoughtful, fun, quite weird sometimes, loving, tenacious, and constantly curious. Dating/ living with an artist is no small task and you handle it with such patience and encouragement. -See second photo for the mess he often comes home to and never complains. Thank you for the never ending support and willingness to dream big (with a strategy of course). Happy Birthday dude. ♥️
My paintings study the mechanisms of sensory perception — mining what happens when the body interprets a sound as a texture, or a scent as a color.
