A personal note about this piece:
I had a stack of books lying around from a demonstration I gave some people on perspective. I was drawn to the textures of the old book covers and pages and decided to make a still life composition. –Æ

A personal note about this piece:
I visited this location several times before I was settled on the light conditions and colors to make a painting of the scene. Initially, my focus was on how the white tree trunk of the tree held so much presence in the surroundings, but my attention soon shifted to the sea of colors and textures from the background to the foreground. Tackling this as a watercolor was a challenge for me, and it went through several iterations, including ones where I came close to tossing the painting aside. I discovered that using an interplay of energetic pencil gestures along with painting created an overall effect that pulled the piece together. The quality of paint and pencil is best seen in person. –Æ

A personal note about this piece:
For this painting, I wanted to experiment with capturing a detailed watercolor scene in the rain. I began by photographing my backyard garden during an afternoon shower, using those images as reference. After sketching the composition onto watercolor paper, I painstakingly painted fine, clear raindrops across the entire surface using Mod Podge—a method I landed on after testing several others.
Because the drops were nearly invisible as I applied them, it was a bit of a gamble—I had no idea how it would turn out. The process alone took an entire day. Once the Mod Podge had dried, creating a resist effect, I painted over it with watercolor and hoped for the best.
For many reasons, this has likely been the most challenging watercolor I’ve ever made.

A personal note about this piece:
There’s something about the luxury of sleep that is captured in this painting of my dog, Caspian. As he slept, I quickly sketched out and loosely painted the composition, and later filled in the details.
I find the combination of pencil, ink, and paint provides for a lot of expression. –Æ
