From my earliest training as an artist I have enjoyed drawing the human figure from life. I have taught figure drawing in college as well as many venues. In 2007 I embarked on a series of paintings utilizing my figure studies in paintings with collaged flowers covering them. Early paintings modeled the figure in glazes over the patterns created on computer from real flower photos. A brief homage to great painters was part of the series. The paintings evolved into a few that were entirely painted and finally back into a more flat decorative interpretation.
