Deconstructing the Garden -- Exhibit and Artist's Statement




My series of oil paintings "Deconstucting the Garden" is on exhibit at Attorney Julie Low's office in Beverly, MA.

My “Deconstructing the Garden” series perceives the cosmology of a squash vine or an heirloom tomato plant. The growing wildness of my kitchen garden in late August, brings me to the interstice where realism plays with the abstract and Nature radiates with luminosity and clarity.
