My work engages with form, color, line and value manipulated on a flat surface with colored muds called paint. My repeated motifs include conescapes, conefalls, coneflagrations, and flesh cones. The cast of characters - cones, scoops, spoons, bowls and other elements of ice cream, all stem from a whimsical engagement with the notional Order of the Cone which, in 1671, established Garter Brand Ice Cream, in service of the English monarchy. In reality they are simply excuses to juxtapose colors, line and form.
