21st century storms
The Force, 8ft 8 in. x 10ft 8 in., Oil on canvas, 2020
This new series was initially inspired by a series of pen and ink studies in Leonardo’s Notebooks investigating the force of water and storms that I have always been drawn to. Leonardo’s themes are echoed in the intensity and scale of contemporary weather patterns caused by global warming.
Compelling environmental concerns frame the content of my current work.
