“Reflections” Aluminum on wood covered with epoxy. 24” x 36”
This abstract piece was inspired by reflections that I saw in a mirror. The different elements in the image “reflect” somewhere else in the image.
“Moxie Maine” Aluminum on wood covered with epoxy. 24” x 36”
Moxie is a very well known beverage here in Maine. I wanted to create a piece of map art with the iconic colors and design of the Moxie can.
“Spaces” Aluminum on wood covered with epoxy.
24” x 36”
This piece was an exploration of different shapes and the spaces that lie between them and also the spaces within each shape that are not covered with colored metal.
“Zebra” Aluminum on wood covered with epoxy.
33” x 32”
This is another work in the negative space. Again using the white background as the white part of the zebra body.
“Portrait of A…”
24” x24”
Aluminum on wood covered with epoxy.
This time the negative space is in the black. It is hard to appreciate its effect of this image on a computer or phone screen, but if you hold the screen farther away or you step back from the image you lose the details of the individual pieces of metal and see the image better as a whole.
“Oriental Pied Hornbill” Aluminum on wood covered with epoxy. 36” x 24”
As an avid birder, I really enjoy making images of birds. The more colorful and outrageous the bird species the more it lends it self to the medium of brightly colored metal cans. The Oriental-Pied Hornbill is a large canopy dwelling bird found in Southeast Asia.
“Plate-billed Mountain Toucan” Aluminum on wood covered with epoxy. 36” x 18”
A beautiful toucan species native to the western slope of the Andes in Ecuador and extending south into Colombia. Using its large bill it feeds on fruit, insects and eggs. Here I used a blue glass bead as a piece of fruit.
“Red-throated Bee-eater” Aluminum on wood covered with epoxy. 24” x 24”
A beautiful bird found in the forests of Southeast Asia.
