Back At It Again, The Light Switch Series is now underway, in Progress

It’s a start. Switch has begun, and acrylics are now on canvas. It’s been awhile since I last used a paintbrush on canvas. Lately, I’ve been spending more time on the sketchpad. A year or two ago, I sketched out a few smaller ideas, before moving to stretched canvas around the office. Honestly, I’m not a huge fan of smaller pieces. My preference for canvas size is 24″ (rectangle) and above. So, we are sowing new growth. For more of my work, check out the following links – Movement, Sun Study, and more under the acrylics tag.

It’s a start. This will probably be a 5 to 6 part series on the same subject, in this case, an old light switch. Who knows, I may decide to scale up a number of sketches at some point, once the direction is set and the subject matter gets ironed out. The latest revisions and work will be posted via X @salleetech so check it out!

Take a look it’s a bit difficult to determine exactly what it is right now, but it’s there… Stay tuned for updates in the coming months!

As more paintings come out of storage, we will be sharing acrylic and oil art form in the backlog. Check out the motion series posted under artworks, which celebrates the concept of motion in various forms – whether in life, through sound, or in other worldly ways. The goal is to capture movement, light, emotion and action.

Below you will find a mix of mixed-media and acrylic works that study water elements, creatures, the night sky, and radio signals in motion. See More Artwork

Artwork – Sunset Series

There are more paintings to unearth from storage. Here we have a series  of sunsets. These pieces focus on the light from the sun and how it falls on objects, land, or water. For now, the following sunset works will serve as a storage/archive for the Sun Study series. Created in various sizes, using acrylics and different mediums, we delve into the exploration of the sun.

Artwork – Mondrian Series

Mondrian, The Piet Study

A brief look into some work inspired by the Dutch Master Piet Mondrian (1872 – 1944). Check out the MoMA website for more information on Piet Mondrian to learn about him, his style, and the abstraction movement. These are the only pieces I could find, but there are others out there. In total, there are roughly 10 more pieces like the two deconstructed building works.

The Piet Study series spans roughly 12 or more years, with artwork given as gifts to family members, for weddings and more. The third piece features more deconstructed rectangles on canvas, sticking to brown tones, reminiscent of terracotta. Unfortunately, these are the only two pieces I have in my possession.

Lastly, a painting inspired by the famous “Girl With The Pearl Earring” by Dutch Master Johannes Vermeer ~1665. Although the famous pearl earring was hidden in this rendering, the study was an early ‘pointillism’ painting on watercolor paper. The final work was to represent the most famously painted by such names as Georges Seurat and Paul Signac ~1800. This study was very early on in my painting adventures, when the background was playing a major role in the final painting, instead of other similar colors to fill in the painting all together.

Artwork – Single Engine Aircraft, Acrylics

Love planes, aircraft of all shapes and sizes.

I have more sketches coming, most of them are in pencil or have been elevated to pen and brush pen form. I am currently sketching up a few new ideas, including a large hauler – the largest helicopter in the fleet, the Chinook and an F/A-18 Super Hornet flown by the US Navy Blue Angels. Someday I will get around to painting these aircraft, but for now, I only have the sketch version. Please check out the two examples on X, via @salleetech.

Traveling Triptych

A Painting Series

A Traveling Triptych – A Life’s Journey, Vagabond, to Scholar (Tinkerer), and Under The Knife

Traveling Triptych

Artwork – Triptych

Traveling works, national art show. The Traveling Triptych.

Firstly, the Traveling Triptych series is an exploration of color, human form, emotion, and the essence of being human; this series is called the Traveling Triptych. Painted back in the early 2000s, the works won multiple first awards, traveled coast-to-coast and remains in my private collection.

Secondly, there are three distinct real reasons for each painting: 1.  A vagabonds life, roaming around, living as is, looking for meaning in this life. 2. Thinking, settled now, trying to make sense of this world, striving to perfection, reflecting on life. 3. Moreover, under the knife, aging not so well these days, but needing to correct organics and better ones’ life, now sharing life’s blessing.

Thirdly, this piece or series was completed in the early 2000s as part of my undergraduate studies, particularly focusing on color theory. Likewise, I wanted to create something a bit more deconstructed, incognito and lacking form straightaway. 

The Traveling Triptych series includes 5 or more pictures or forms. The themes include the vagabond or nomad, the uncut, the unkept. Therefore, the one who thinks, lost in thought; pondering how things are. Subsequently, we have a hand searching for sight, or perhaps defending sight from thought. All open to interpretation, surreal in nature.

Lastly, more to come, more paintings in this style or like the Traveling Triptych. please check back later. You can also view my latest sketches and artwork on my X @salleetech for progression photos. Feel free to browse through other pieces, and the artwork category as well. Thank you!

The style has been consistent throughout my career, most recently in a study of pelicans you can find those paintings by searching Bird Study or click the link.. I explore the world around us, using color and space to define the setting, mood, and time. Stay tuned for more updates.

Tree Study

A Season Of Change

Tree Study

"</div

Artwork – Tree Study Series

Changing seasons, progression of time. A Tree study.

We watch as branches sway in the breeze, winter is coming . Snow covers their barren branches, with no leaves for what seems like months. Out of the window,  we see the sun, and we follow this specimen through time a passage of time, as seasons change.

We watch its growth after a tremendously long winter pause. New life emerges in the spring, followed by a spring trim. In the warm glow of late day, branches stretch, and bounce, pushing out their bark and leaves for more sun light.

More coming soon, please check back later. Be sure to view my latest sketches and artwork on X @salleetech for progression photos. You can also explore other pieces and artwork in the artwork category.
