"The city is not a concrete jungle, it is a human zoo." - Unknown

In Urban Landscape, I explore the quiet paradox of the city—its restless energy and the solitude woven through its crowds. Fragmented shapes and layered forms trace the contours of a metropolis in flux, where angular figures stand as silent witnesses to a shared yet isolating experience.

My mixed media paintings consist of acrylic paint and digital collage. They are painted on museum quality archival paper and then laminated to a cradled wood panel, varnished, waxed and then framed in a black floater frame. Each piece begins as a digital study on an iPad where the basic composition and coloring is determined before the hand painted original is started.

This painting is also available as a canvas print
