This is a series I return to from time to time. Some people can't seem to make heads or tails of the colorful shapes---bottles? cupcakes? zombies?---but they were intended to be a crowd. They were meant to symbolize the great melting pot of humanity. (but in the end, I don't mind what you see in them)
One of my favorite series to paint. This one nearly steps over that line into nonobjective abstract painting (in my mind, however, this is clearly a landscape filled with flowers and weeds).

It all started when I was describing the early stages of my painting process as “notes on the painting itself”. As in, these basic shapes and tentative lines describe the intended future painting [which has not yet become the painting itself] . . . just notes jotted down for later reference.
This idea became Notes on a Landscape, wherein I add in words and phrases related to the image itself, sometimes literally, sometimes poetically or tangentially.
