Collection: Triangle Mountains

This body of work focuses on the simplicity of light hitting geometric natural shapes.  I developed this way of painting and carving wood living in a small cabin on Monarch Pass in the year 2021.  I remember the first time I created one of these images clearly as I rarely finish art and like what I am looking at.  While the rules regarding the geometric lines change from piece to piece, the fundamental element remains: that nature repeats its shapes on a variety of scales.  This is beautifully depicted in a bracken fern, where one leaf, looks like on stalk, which looks like one plant as you continue to zoom out.  Mountains are just triangles, made up of smaller triangles, made up of smaller triangles.  I also appreciate that in contrast to much of my other work - these offer a decorative simplicty and are therefore appropriate almost anywhere.
