"Desert Garden" 48 x 62 x 2" Mixed Media on Canvas 2025

“Fractal Memories” is a new art series that transforms the exhilaration and sensory experiences of outdoor adventures into abstract visual narratives. This project series seeks to bridge the gap between fleeting moments of thrill and the infinite complexity of fractals, capturing the essence of exploration through a dynamic interplay of memory, motion, and abstraction. By weaving together still and moving images from mountain climbing, hiking, skiing and other adventure style activities, the series aims to evoke the visceral sensations of these moments while celebrating their intricate beauty. The pieces here are the first in a series of works inspired by the same motif and drive.

“Untitled Series” Each piece begins with an embryonic sketch, created with Crayola markers chosen for their water-soluble properties. These initial marks, urgent yet intentional, evoke a sense of fragility, much like the ephemeral quality of Michael Krebber's work, as if they might blow away with the wind. Water and brush are then introduced to soften and blend the lines, transforming the sketch into something akin to a watercolor painting.

From there, I layer oil paint, carefully preserving the tonal essence of the original sketch. The oil palette is rich yet balanced, leaning on complementary color schemes to maintain harmony. The finished works are lighthearted, playful, and deliberately noncommittal, capturing a spirit of experimentation and spontaneity
