Pull Painting
I am Inspired by many artists including contemporary artists such as Gerhardt Richter, Francis Bacon, Jackson Pollack, William de Kooning, Richard Sera, and Pierre Soulages. I have developed my own unique technique for my Pull Series. My technique consists of carefully adding and subtracting layers of colors by using Palette knives, brushes and squeegees.
I create a dense, subtle and slowly deepening mixture of overlapping colors and shapes. I have developed a complex painting medium for oils and acrylics that allows me to build up unusual textures. Through research I have learned how to create heavily and impasto paintings. I work in oil or in mixed media and often add other elements such as cold wax.
