GLIMPSING SLIPPER
11x14" acrylic/canvas


This painting is from my most recent series of green & slipping glimpser. "Slipping Glimpser" is a nonsensical word term by Willhelm de Kooning to describe himself as a painter. The reason I am using it here is that many of the works in this series are deliberately "set up' technically so that there is very little resistance between the brush and surface while painting, making it slippery. I am also, most definitely a glimpser. 

The preponderance of green in these works has seeped in from my studio environment, which windows face a large green yard and pond. This work may act as an "antidote" to city living by bringing nature with it, or fit nicely in tropical or other country environments.
