At Loch Ness (2000-01)

Through a travel grant I was able to visit Loch Ness and fully engage my adolescent obsession it's legionary monster. Here I found no monster but was stunned with the beauty and mystery of the Highlands and it's dark loch. My paintings from photos taken there are rendered in a technique developed that build upon many thin layers clear medium interleaved with small brush strokes of paint. The closer one gets to the painting, the less defined it becomes. So I also found Loch Ness as a subject.
