Looking At/Looking Through
Water color on paper
42" x 32"
A painter/illustrator was commissioned to depict glass as he "looked" through as well as "at" through. This is that representation. (2009)
Indigo
Oil on primed canvas
32" x 20"
A tube of indigo oil paint was smeared on primed canvas. I once asked a painter what color was the most common to depict a pane of glass. They replied "indigo while of course." So "of course" this is a pane of glass. (2009)

Lens
Prismacolor on paper
55" x 42"
Staring at a glass lens obsessively I wondered what colors lived in the curiously clear object; so I began to draw, and through this action of drawing, to find the various colors of clear. Not having used colorfast materials the drawing has since begun to fade in the exposure to sunlight. (2010)
