Artwork description:

A woman’s face in a subdued, but textured, palette, and evocative of a classic marble statue. This piece features a scribbled and pebbled texture that is a result of the photo transfer technique I used, where I place an inkjet print face down on my surface and, using a medium, I put pressure onto the back of the print to transfer it.

A piece from my Disfashionate Series. The art is a comment on the way the fashion industry manipulates photographs of women to completely unrealistic and unattainable levels of beauty — thus establishing a kind of de facto, yet completely artificial standard that is impossible for any actual person to achieve.

“Disfashionate White (1)” is a work on paper. Its subdued palette will adapt well to a variety of decorative schemes. Please see other work from my Disfashionate Series for pieces that would work well in a gallery wall, including “Just Above the Waist” or any of the other “Disfashionate White” pieces. I also have a series of collaged boxes that are part of my Disfashionate body of work which would work in a cohesive gallery wall while bringing texture and variety.

My work is a mix of many things, and created in a number of ways. Sometimes viscerally — with brush in hand — fueled by loud music, emotion and caffeine, other times it’s more meditative, working in a deliberate fashion. Part of my process is the naming each piece, or series of pieces, and as a lover of words and language, I often feel that a piece or series is not complete until a name is crafted.
