CRYSTALS
"Crystals" is the title I gave to a series of paintings in which I used the illusion of translucent and transparent, geometric forms as containers to collect the mysterious and sensuous energy inherent in color and light. I became intrigued with several features unique to crystals; a solid object that allows light to pass though itself and the ability to simultaneously view the interior and exterior of its structure. The process of how crystals grew, layer by layer, also relate to my paintings technique, glazing layer upon layer of transparent paint to arrive at a deep, luminous array of colors.
