Finishing up details on this new piece. Loving the new color palette. 48 x 48 in. #abstraction #abstractlandscape #palmspringsart

Fresh from the studio. Inspired by the rock formations and striations in Death Valley. I love a good urban adventure but nature wins when it comes to layers, colors and shapes. Acrylic and charcoal on canvas36 x 48 in. #deathvalley #natureinart #abstractlandscape #palmspringsarts #theperezartdistrict

A recent favorite off to its new home. #artcollectors #artsales #saltonsea #urbanvignettes

Have you been to Fossil Falls near the eastern Sierras? A dry waterfall canyon, a field of smooth sculpted rocks and lava rocks from ancient eruptions. It’s impossible to say it better than nature but here’s a trio of paintings inspired by my visit. 20 x 20 in on canvas. #abstraction #wanderlust #fossilfalls #easternsierras #exploretocreate #palmspringsart

Making some samples before tackling a larger canvas. I came back from a trip to the eastern sierras super inspired. My first painting attempts felt way too literal so I decided to just do a bunch of small pieces, which helped me to distill my vision a bit. Love the process. #creativeprocess #abstract #inthestudio #wanderlust

Made a few changes and now I’ll let ot sit for a while.

Abstraction of a San Francisco street scene. Acrylic and charcoal on canvas, 48 x 48 in. #freshfromthestudio #abstractpainting #palmspringsart #geometricabstract

I’m not shy about repurposing old paintings so I usually like to keep some element of the hidden layers. In this case the original painting is playing a key roll. Also the geometric design is a nod to Diebenkorn’s Ocean Park series. #semiabstract #palmspringsartist #artcollector #geometrıcabstractıon

Here’s the next piece in my street vignettes series. I’ve always admired skateboarders and surfers, especially the fearlessness of kids. Acrylic on canvas. 24 x 20. #streetvignettes #skateboarders #skateboardingart #semiabstract #palmspringsart
