Bowls of Ramen
One of my favorite places to visit and EAT in San Francisco is Chinatown. There’s something so magical about the red lanterns strung across the street. There are people bustling about throughout the various marketplaces, along with smells of delicious food that seem to come from every direction.
In this painting I decided to challenge myself by choosing a color palette using mostly reds. If I find myself shying away from a certain hue or palette, I go full force into it to discover what might be lurking.
Because I paint intuitively, recesses open in my subconscious that I am not aware are at work. Only after I step back can I see what I have before me and many times it is at this point I see the story that has revealed itself in paint. In this case, my love of Chinatown came through the tools and directly onto the wooden panel.

I use high quality, professional grade acrylic paints and mediums, oil sticks, as well as top quality substrates and acid free paper. I make most of my own collage papers using the same paints as the final paintings. If there is vintage collage, it will be layered over with protective UV mediums to ensure the color stays as true as possible. However, the natural aging of the vintage papers is to be appreciated for its imperfect beauty.
Each painting receives an isolation coat prior to a wax finish, or UV varnish in matte, satin, or a combination of both. Cradled panels will be finished in a polyurethane or hand-painted to showcase the art. Frames are finished in a poly finish as well, or hand-painted and will be described as such under Description.
All artwork comes ready to hang with d-rings, coated wire and is signed on the front and/or the back. Each piece also comes with a certificate of authenticity.
