62. 8"X8" PAINTING

$80.00

The States of Mind series is a collection of 113 8 inch x 8 inch canvas paintings.

Each individual canvas is layered and labored with Latex paint, Household chemicals, oil/chalk pastels, marble grit, rust, and stains.

Generally created in sets of 6, each work stands alone as capsulations of a particular moment, physical and/or emotional state, made in one sitting.

The series allowed me to push myself and the paint - to build a “cook book” of how to achieve textures with combinations of material- These techniques have been, and will continue to be, applied to my larger scale works.

The edges of each canvas are finished black oil pastel and a blend of paraffin wax. Lightweight.

120 8” x 8” paintings were created during a Fall 2023 residency at the Joan Mitchell Foundation in New Orleans.

Notably, it was created sustainably, repurposing carloads of paint, stains, and chemicals that would have otherwise been disposed of at The Green Project in New Orleans.
