Brushstroke Paintings

These paintings and drawings belong to a set of work that I made early in my painting life. They represent the part of my artistic self that dissects and examines rather than expresses. Most of this work was made by making small brushstrokes in ink on paper, that I enlarged and traced exactly, using a slide projector, onto other papers and canvases. I was interested in the idea of reproducing and duplicating something that is inherently the opposite of mass production - the unique building block of all painting.
