STUDIO 17
Works on Paper
This collection of paintings, drawings and monotype prints, though varied in style and medium, share a commonality – the technique of abstract improvisation. I’m drawn to this way of creating art because it is expressively unique to each individual artist.
The technique inspires an easy flow of expression, colored with emotion and meditations of the moment. It is an alchemy of a certain sort, working with intuition and materials in a way that have no certain outcome. For me, the process is a journey into the mysteries of creativity.
With a love of visual beauty that transcends everyday life, my work has an ethereal, other-worldly quality. Inspiration comes from a variety of sources, including the stunning Hubble telescope views of the universe.

Hubble, bubble toil and all that, to be sure. But perhaps too the Calabi–Yau manifold with its curling of hyper-spatial trans-temporal superstrings. And borscht. Most definitely borscht in a Mixmaster. And unless I’m wildly off track, the faintest suggestion, a primordial trace of the later Tashjian (see http://www.roadsideamerica.com/nut/ )
