About the Book
Movement & Metaphor, was an exhibit of acrylic, mixed media collage that opened in November of 2014. This exhibition guide contains all of the works, and explanatory text featured in the exhibit.
The painting/collages are not just about 'pretty imagery' but the depth of what's below the surface, both literally and figuratively.
This art is comprised of rare images, hand transferred to wood and canvas, with layers of paint, glazes, and surface treatments. The work blends media in a rich, multilayered painting full of texture, synergy, and narrative, that blurs the boundaries of design, illustration, and fine art.
