SHIFTING WINDS
Contemporary Portraits of Americana
Shifting Winds is my historically powerful, yet contemporary interpretation of the Wild West’s most famous and infamous characters, stories and mysteries. Painting from images that I emotionally and symbolically connect with, I am able to meticulously incorporate personal and intimate details into each piece using my extremely innovative “blind grid” process.
This collection of portraits interweaves a contemporary twist on some of America’s most intensely confronting, non-romanticized imagery of the West. Through my use of repeated and evocative patterns, I am able to transform several mini abstracts into one complete and edgy historic painting reminiscent of America’s forbearers.
Take a train ride into the Wild West; immerse yourself in the history of the civil war era; or simply catch a glimpse of the early Native Americans’ way of life in this inimitable collection of portraits.
