Gilded Dunes, Bodega Bay
Colored pastel on wax on panel, 2018
The Gilded Dunes work focuses on visual poetics in representational imagery. Overlaying the grandeur of the Fête Galante genre upon the contemporary California landscape. Through an exaggerated color palette and loose florid patterns, emphasis is placed upon the gestural atmosphere. Touching upon this Rococo ornamentation aims to romanticize our lands as they slowly dissolve through our sprawling over-development and climatic shifts
