boatyard
We all have our “playgrounds”. Mine ranged (almost said progressed) from childhood afternoons in lumber and coal yards to retired photo hunt mornings in boatyards . In addition to abstractions of random yard items, this collection includes two ongoing projects. The series “Hulls on Wheels”, captures graphic abstractions of tires, fenders and waterlines of trailered vessels. A second series, “Hullscapes”, takes advantage of the beauty revealed below waterlines of stored vessels. Many of these scraped, chipped and crusted images appear as landscape-like scenes, while others recall abstract impressionist painting.
