Littoral Spaces
Influenced by the landscape, the paintings explore the intersections between land and water. Small sketches done on site support memory of place, and experience. The final works contain forms both recognizable and abstract. Abrupt transitions evoking both order and chaos are evident of what was witnessed and imagined.
