Rodin Series:
I live near Stanford University, which has one of the world's largest collection of sculptures by Auguste Rodin. I've been fascinated by them for years, and recently created a series of watercolor paintings based on them. I aimed to show the emotions of the sculptures using vivid colors and unusual angles.
Andrieu:
This painting captures Andrieu d'Andres, one of the six burgers of Calais, in a moment when he thought he would die at the hands of King Edward of England.
This painting won an award at the 2007 Santa Clara Valley Watercolor Society annual exhibit, and was sold at the exhibit.
