This work is part of a collage painting series that began with laying down a color field grid and then integrating my abstract references to the landscape.

The landscape development progressed as I painted watching through my studio window. While making this series, I also created plien air painting collages in the BVI. The series of grids colors and compositional forms changed seasonally reflecting the intensity of light and movement of the environment I was studying, and enamored with.
