The animals you’ll find here are unlike any you’ll see in the wild. This is because I’ve painted them to express how I feel about them, rather than how we see them with our physical eyes. I find wild animals and the creatures that visit our backyards to be an endless source of fascination and delight. Painting this collection has been a grand exploration of color, marks and texture. Each painting starts with several layers of color and unrestrained mark making. Once an appealing balance of color and visual texture is achieved, I feel into which animal the painting wants to be. To create the shape of the animal, I glaze the negative space around the animal’s face or upper body, essentially blocking everything out but the face. Lastly, I paint just enough detail so the face and personality of the animal comes alive, tweaking and refining color & marks as I go. The result is expressive, colorful and upbeat.
