Spirals

Most of my paintings start with the underlying geometry of the Fibonacci sequence of numbers (0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21....) to create a composition of the classic nine, or spiral shape. Nature always inspires me to paint her creatures and abundant variety. I have fallen in love with collage, and use old book pages which sometimes generate the titles for the work and inspire imagery.

I put together a slide show of the making of the five backdrop paintings I did for the Dominican Hospital Foundation fashion show at the Cocoanut Grove, Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk on November 21, 2008.The slide show ends with the fashion show. Click on the link below for my Picassa site and you can view the pictures in a larger format. Enjoy!
