Artwork Description

I'm inspired by architecture, by shapes and by geometry.
I'm fascinated by the work of Jeffry Smart and seek to bring his vision into my work.
The Sydney Opera House is an incredible building of organic sweeping sails, rising and falling throughout the structure. This interior rises in stark contrast both in its blocky shape and the warmth of the natural wood. An opera of dissonance that is beautiful to behold.
