The Beautiful Hours
This series of more than forty small oil on paper paintings alludes to the Medieval “book of hours” manuscript form. These sublimely crafted illuminated manuscripts chronicled both the sacred and secular life of a noble patron, through paintings and text. The Beautiful Hours painting series is a non-textual recollection - a deconstructed book of excerpts from an insular artist’s visual journey. These images, for the most part, painted themselves and represent the resurrection of long held memory brought forward through the suggestion of paint.
