The New Work section displays the most recent car and motocycle paintings in oil, acrylic and mixed media. White some works present my traditional approach of bright colors and reflections, many pieces push the envelope more towards pure abstraction.
A reviewer recently commented on "Blue Skies and Chrome":
"The images seen here have been stretched, cropped and distorted, the colors pushed and exaggerated while retaining some degree of realistic reference. The images are painted in acrylic on manipulated digital print. Each image represents the beautiful effect of chrome reflections that distort a bright blue sky above a classic red automobile.
When viewed from a distance these images display incredible movement; they suggest frames reflecting off the car in Hunter S. Thompson's "Fear and loathing in Las Vegas "... they are at once disturbing and quite beautiful."
