These watercolor paintings reflect my interest in pattern, texture, ornament, and the natural world, especially birds. Made with granulating and metallic watercolors on 300 lb cold pressed paper, they change with the light, recalling medieval illuminated manuscripts. As a great student of art history, the past informs my compositions. The curving forms are inspired by wrought ironwork found in Spain, particularly in Gothic and Baroque cathedrals and turn of the 20th century architectural railings that are ubiquitous in European cities. Repeating shapes and motifs show my admiration for the work of Morris & Co., who sought to bring the beauty of nature indoors during the Victorian age.
