An informal group of flower forms spanning several years: some take a second look at an earlier subject, some are technical explorations, some ended up being used as commercial illustrations.
I consider this group transitional in both form and content.

Based on some gallery success with previous flowers, I embarked on a new series of formal flower paintings. These paintings pick up where the group from the early '90s left off. Technically more developed, they include experiment that the previous work lacks, as well as a better understanding of the colors involved.
It was a new experience to make work for public view and appraisal and I enjoyed it for as long as it lasted. But the economy crashed and ended this phase. I confess it was a bit of a relief and I was more than ready for a change.

A continuation of intense sketchbook practice, these pages explore theater, everyday life and the female body.
After passing the age of fifty, I found myself using the sketchbook as an outlet for concerns about health, and the physical changes that occur with illness, injury and involution.

These portraits (mostly of myself), including diary sequences, are an attempt to convey more than superficial physical description, such as aspects of personality, conflict, emotional state. In some, I resort to blatant depictions of injury; others are more subtle.

A group of fairly traditional watercolors closely related to the oil paintings of this period. Some were studies made prior; most were works in their own right. There is repetition and variation, particularly with the cactus, rose and waterlily pictures.

While technically unrelated to the lacquer spatters, this painting is their direct descendant. It is included here because it marked a return to more conventional methods.
18/18
A method I never thought I would attempt until a neighbor donated some cans of old automotive lacquer. I jumped at the chance to experiment with it and would encourage all artists to do the same, if only to learn how challenging it can be.

In this little experiment, I attempted to reiterate a series of gestures using variations in the palette. I find them pleasing and quite communicative.

Fake writing has cropped up occasionally over the course of my practice. It serves two important functions: to give silent voice to the unutterable and to create agency in situations of impotence. The most important examples of this are my years as a pre-literate child and during adolescence when I was unable to communicate effectively with my mother.

I like to use sketchbooks to work out issues of technique as well as complex thoughts and ideas that don't lend themselves to linguistic expression. Most of the time, they function as nonverbal diaries.
Occasionally, a specific title will offer evocative clues or reminders of the process but in general, where titles are given, it is in retrospect in a feeble attempt at dream-catching.

18/18

Quite a number of the earlier drawings inspired rework at that point, and may yet again in the future.
