The BOULDERS series is a fresh addition to my practice, inspired by the desert terrain where I live and hike. These towering, time-worn forms have long held a quiet power for me—stoic, grounded, and endlessly expressive. They seem to call me to capture their presence on canvas. This series marks my first return to abstract work since the late ’90s and early 2000s. Drawing on the gestural line work I’ve developed through my figurative pieces, I explore the architectural shapes, weight, and bold gestures of these stone giants in compositions that range from intimate to boldly scaled.
In BOULDERS, I offer an immersive reflection through vibrant pops of color and a contemporary sensibility—simplified yet charged with energy—inviting viewers to connect and feel the spirit of these forms.
