When Images Transform
I see photos as stories. Small vignettes of life frozen forever in tangible form. I collect these little bits of life, studying them to read the tale they are longing to tell.
My interpretation is my own, and I will often weave 2 or more images together, creating a new story. Using stamps, colors, text and other items, the piece becomes a rich tapestry.
My new series will be a year long study into the duality of images. From the photograph to the painting the work will be transformed.
The subject matter will be a trip through older China and modern Japan. A look at how the photographer and the painter see the same space, how one scene can inspire multiple images.
Join me as I post my paintings and their inspiration throughout this year. Give me your thoughts and insights as we journey through the land of the Orient.
