These two paintings are part of a series I have been working on for several months which combines the patterns of urban shapes and colors with the superimposed zen circle. I was trying to create the feeling of looking in through a layer of graphics into the painting or world behind. It almost feels like graffiti on the surface of the painting. I am featuring this work at my upcoming show Feb. 2011 at the Studio Gallery.
Good art is the result of hard work and dedication. It happens only when the artist finds his or her own story to tell — and then learns to do so with his or her own unique language.
