The España series comprises set of exhilarating abstracts with glorious accents of silver and gold transcending familiar earthen tones hearkening back to the richness and rugged beauty of southeastern Spain in a contemporary interpretation, suggestive of its "Golden Age."  The striking style invites familiarity and curiosity.

The paired abstract set Constance and Thalia draw their inspiration in the fresh renaissance now enveloping the New Orleans Lower Garden District and the enduring streets which share their names. This stately neighborhood was originally founded in 1830's by Americans migrating to the former French colonial capital in the promise of the Louisiana Purchase. These compositions celebrate the embrace of contemporary generations to this once abandoned corner of the fabled city. Earthen tones with haunting shadows are slowly overcome by the emerging brightness of lively bluish and golden hues.

In this abstract, orderly geometric shapes arranged in sacred harmony standing patiently in wait against a soft background yield to the boastful flourish of the prominently accented golden figures from which this two part set derives its respective names:  Domino and Tetris.  
Part two of a two-part set.

The "Asteron" abstract four-part set extols the glory of the two brightest stars in the night sky, Regulus and Sirius.  The later, Sirius is distinguished as being twice as large as our sun whose heliacal rising marked the flooding of the Nile in Ancient Egypt-- and the former, Regulus (Latin for "Prince" or "Little King") is known as the brightest star in the constellation of Leo, thus "the heart of the lion."  These compositions celebrate the dichotomy of lightness and dark in deference to celestial rays as they cross our earthen skies.

This abstract features geometrically asymmetrical rectangles accented with adobe and charcoal contours against an earthen champagne background.  Cody, as this ancient namesake suggests, evokes sentiments of familiarity and helpfulness.

These abstracts evoke the mystery of ancient Aztec architectural forms and the contrasts between simple and elegant versus bold and powerful.
The Aztecan city of Tenochtitlan would become the world's largest city by the 16th century, and the seat of an expansive empire. Important features of the city included a the royal palace, a central plaza, temples, shrines, pyramids, courtyards, lush gardens, and even ball courts. While construction initiatives were limited to primitive tools and manual labor, their engineers had deployed precise mathematical techniques based on a "vigesimal" system, which is only now being understood by modern archaeologists.

This abstract series is dedicated to Duchess Anna Amalia (1739-1807). As an affluent noble and influential patroness of art and literature, grand-daughter of Frederick the Great of Prussia, Anna Amalia cultivated and supported many of the greatest minds of European theatre—most notably Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and Friedrich Schiller (whose poem “An die Freude” formed the nucleus of Beethoven’s 9th Symphony). As an 18th century inspiration for many women to follow, Anna Amalia founded a theatrical company, was a notable symphonic composer, and endowed a library which is now home to over 1,000,000 volumes.
 

This composition is inspired by the ancient Berber seafaring city-state of Tangier. Situated opposite the Straits of Gibraltar, the city is said to be named after Tingis, the daughter of Atlas, the mythical supporter of the heavens. Founded in the 5th century BC by Carthaginian colonists from Greece, it later passed to the ancient Romans as Mauretania Tingitana and then to the Byzantine Empire. Rich orange and golden hues in this abstract evoke symbolism of warmth associated with joy, sunshine, and the Mediterranean/Saharan landscape—representing history, adventure, curiosity, and creativity.
