In the Studio
The Creative Process . . .
In all my paintings, I start by laying in the background first, and then move forward in layers. I complete each layer with details and special effects before I lay in the next layer. Once all layers are laid in, I then enhance the image with highlights and details. Some paintings also have metallic paint and pearl essence, and occasionally glitter, sand, and an iridescence.
Most of my newer body of work, called “Visionary Art”, is large profile, with a deep, gallery wrapped frame (canvas is wrapped around the sides) where I paint around the sides so they can be hung without a traditional frame, if desired.
