Taking A Closer Look

Painting detail, oil pastel on paper.

I like the idea of getting very close to the work so the viewer feels like they are traveling through it. In a time when more people than ever before are looking at art on their phones, providing an up-close look at my work has become a valuable service that Iā€™m happy to provide.

Every once in a while I post short videos of my work up close to offer the viewer a perspective that they will not get unless they are looking at my work in person. I like to film as close as possible to my work to show the texture & intensity of color.
