Paint

In my paintings, the intent is to precondition the viewer and take him in a specified direction. I repeat the use of the star shape, creating a common denominator. Camouflaged lines of the shape form one layer of the painting. Using texture and textured materials to form physical layers veils the objects employing trust by the viewer that the object is still there. The repetition of a shape or object minimizes the importance of the particular shape or object. This allows the viewer to explore other facets of the painting.
