Compositions

During my period in art school, I learned how to make collage a source of inspiration for most of my paintings. They started out as simple, time-consuming exercises by arranging construction paper shapes based on size and color. I think I made nearly a dozen of these until I got the point of the exercise, and I used this method to plan or block segments on my canvas to figure out where things would go.

Later on, I took some photos of my mediocre landscapes and still lives painted in class, cut them up like credit cards, and created a series of fantastic scenes in various perspectives and themes. Each composition focuses on one element or object repeated throughout the entire painting creating a finished puzzle to be scanned for its individual pieces.

So far, these works have been recognized by others for emulating the style of avant-garde Constructivists and for their whimsical, thought-provoking beauty.
