Diebenkorn-inspired Works

Recently, I spoke to the docent group at the New Mexico Museum of Art, Santa Fe, on the art of Richard Diebenkorn.  The research I did in preparing for this one-hour lecture on one of my favorite abstract expressionist artists, inspired this new series of works.  In creating these works, I've experimented with  a variety of mediums – oil, acrylic, patina, gold leaf, collage, and acrylic/encaustic –for a series rich in texture and abstract form. Like, Diebenkorn, the works feature places where I’ve lived and worked.
