About the art
Artist statement
Using the motifs of modern abstract art, I employed hard-edged, minimal, geometric shapes, triangles, circles, and cubist inspired forms. I attempted to create a dynamic composition with contrasting colors including black, red, dark green, magenta, purple, grays, yellow ochre and browns. Native New Yorker refers to my place of birth and the city where I spent most of my life, and it was the name of a popular song in 1977 by the musical group Odyssey. Painted on archival cotton duck gallery wrapped canvas with a 1 1/2 inch depth edge painted white. Wired on the back, ready to hang. Titled, dated, and signed on the reverse.
