Color
Drift

Begun in the late 1990s and ongoing — luminous, layered studies of light meeting water. Oil and encaustic on linen.

“Water is never still — and yet, in paint, it can be held forever.”

The Plates

Studies in light & surface.

Each plate begins as a single observation — a glance across the pond at dawn, a flicker beneath the dock — then deepens through many translucent layers of oil and wax.

The series is ongoing. New plates are added each season.
