2023 Works In Resin.
Pressed floral compositions over natural elements.
Spurred by a love for the geometric compositions of classic Hawaiian quilts, the natural world around our every day and my wife who inspires me to dream beyond my immediate vision; These compositions reach, in that way, beyond my floral work within surfboards; Reconnecting me to so much of the fine art I was surrounded with as a child.
This first collection is dedicated to the work of my father, Kent Lovelace, whom I watched paint a vision of the world around him in oil, often on roughed copper plates which are found in the two central pieces of this series.
