Triple Blue Twist #5 37″ X 20″ or 45″X16″(depending on configuration)
The challenge and puzzle of creating this work was in making it arrangeable in three configurations by uniting each loop with it’s corresponding pinstripe on one panel with the other.Both are symmetrical and a product of a short series I did along this theme a couple years ago.The medium is acrylic on canvas along with modelling paste

Modern Icon #2 Acrylic on canvas 36″X48″
This painting is a composite icon of an apostle,angel,shepherd and Christ figure combined and reinterpreted in a modern style that takes it’s basic geometry from Byzantine iconography combined with the impression that of stained glass in relation to it’s cell structure.Gold leafing was used on the highlights.This was a commissioned work and at the clients request is a little more figurative that what I am accustom to creating. All the same I am very happy with the results and being Greek in origin it was a pleasure to reinterpret something that is reflective of the culture that I was raised in
Espresso Mocha Yin and Yang #3 20″ X 24″
This is a earlier work on the yin and yang theme using coffee colours. Completely pop art in style reflective of the general pop interest interest in both Zen Buddhism and Coffee.Very whimsical and humerus.
Featured in the upper right corner is the Italian flag in reference again to the coffee.
Coloured Strata #32 16″ X 20″ acrylic on canvas
This is another strata that incorporates splines and circles and the typical contrasting warm and cool colours. I like to contrast the warm and cool colours vividly with some earthier hues to soften the transition within the composition. Note that the spline is a single line if you use your eye to trace it that will take you on a journey across the whole canvas.

Homage to Kenneth Noland #1 12″X46″ acrylic on canvas
I have been an admirer of Kenneth Noland’s Targets for a very long time and decided to do a piece extending one of his targets horizontally over three panels.I painted these using a textured cell structure and underlying geometry to give continuity to the composition.

Inverted Spectrum #16
This is one in a long series of works that I have painted in this series over the last couple years the one panel has been mirrored then inverted then fractured to compliment the composition and keep the transition interesting. The two opposing spectral scales naturally for a warm coo l contrast to the composition making it more vibrant.
