Blue hour with Star magnolia

"Blue Hour" celebrates the delicate beauty of a star magnolia as the day fades into dusk. With cool, tranquil blues enveloping the late-blooming flowers, this painting captures the serene and fleeting atmosphere just before nightfall. It's a moment of quiet reflection, where the soft light and nature's gentle rhythm meet, evoking a sense of stillness and magic.

You may know that the vision of a star magnolia inspired me many of my works, including the very different Penrose Project. I hope you have the chance to witness a blooming one. More floral watercolors on this page and here, as prints.

Explore a diverse portfolio of work that moves between abstraction and observation. Each series examines layering, transparency, and the interplay of control and chance — qualities inherent to watercolor and multiple exposure photography alike.

From the monumental accumulations in Removal (2019) to the recent poem-guided abstract watercolors, the pieces reflect an ongoing investigation into presence, memory, and the unpredictable nature of materials.
