Sumo and peel 40" X 40" acrylic on canvas

These paintings attempt to show the inner life of things we touch and then throw away. I like that moment when objects are crumpled or peeled, about to be consumed or discarded.

I think of these paintings as portraits because they seem to stand for particular people, or to commemorate certain events.
