These pieces, completed between 1999 and 2002, followed on the heels of the first wave of my painted relief carvings, bringing with them freedom from rectilinear shaps as well as more complex composition and layering.
As with my other painted work, these pieces are grouped based on technique rather than theme. For more background information about this body of work, see the Painted Wood Assemblages section of 8 Bodies in 12 Years: Images and Sculptures 1994-2006, which covers all of my work in painted and carved wood from 1998-2002.
