Out of the Box
Out
Out of the Box projects represent the different directions I have taken, working in different genres and materials, and always exploring new ways of expressing my creative nature.
Created with an "n-scale" model of the Rio Grande California Zephyr, which ran from Chicago, Illinois to Emeryville, California from 1949 to the 1970's. This work combines painting and real objects in a diorama style setting. The scene depicts the transition from the Rockies to the desert in western Colorado.
