I use urban walls as a canvas for minimalist explorations of light and shadow, emphasizing their raw textures and geometric forms. By focusing on the stark contrasts created by natural lighting, I reveal subtle variations in tone and hue across the surface.

The often monochromatic or limited color palettes of these walls serve as a backdrop for experimenting with spatial depth and visual rhythm.

Through careful observation of the interplay between illuminated and shaded areas, I distill complex urban environments into simplified, abstract compositions that highlight the dynamic relationship between light, shadow, and minimal color.

This approach transforms everyday architectural elements into poetic studies of form and perception.

The painting has a one-inch unpainted border and can be matted and framed or applied to a wood substrate and framed without glass. This is an oil painting and does not need to be behind glass.

The art is shipped flat in rigid cardboard that I make to fit the painting.

Each painting is original and hand painted using oil and cold wax on prepared, archival paper. The painting has a soft lustre finish due to the natural beeswax wax used when mixing the paint.
