Tiny scenes
2023
This is a series of vignettes of places in San Francisco. I think one of the most beautiful things about living in a city is the interplay between urban geometry and the soft, organic elements of nature. In these tiny paintings I've combined the rigid lines and angles of architectural objects (like buildings and stairs) with the fluid, gentle contours of the world they live in. By anchoring some of the pieces with well-known landmarks, I wanted the viewer to contemplate this interplay between human and nature made environments in the context of a familiar setting.
