"My work explores the connection between the artist and the model, the energy exchanged between the two. It's about emotional response, tactile, visceral, abstract, created with a limited color palette, leaving the brush strokes and drips raw and unrefined. It's as much a conversation as a picture, a snapshot of emotion, a thread running between the observer and the observed. Connective Tissue."

Dysphagia No.51

It’s a cold and wet morn­ing, it reminds me of Port­land. Hip­bone Stu­dio was and is one of my favorite places. Jeff Burk has cre­ated a unique jewel with his stu­dio.
It’s a place where you know what to expect, which for me, let’s my cre­ativ­ity soar. This paint­ing is a snap­shot of Hip­bone. The first layer is a Thurs­day night Long-​Term pose, the sec­ond was done at a Model Marathon. The grid rep­re­sents Hipbone’s reli­a­bil­ity, what hap­pens in between is up to the artist.

From the Dys­pha­gia Series.
