Cranes In Winter

People used to ask me: “What do you call this technique of painting on multiple levels of glass?”. It wasn’t until I provided a name, vitreography™ - a term I coined in 1992 - that they appeared satisfied.

I create visual narratives and then suspend them in transparent fields of color and line. The lines rise to the status of something physical, which bids the viewer to enter into a world set apart. Effecting the sensation of motion, a “painted experience” is created, that travels a route between art and fun, between the serious and the comic, between eye, heart, and mind.
