"Port of Cassis was created from a photo that I took in the south of France in the small port of Cassis at dusk. This piece took me nearly a year to finish because constructing a fused piece can sometimes be complicated. I left off the lower water part for several months until I figured out how I was going to construct it.

Fabric is an incredible flexible warm medium. The fabric helps to make it better than a photo and can actually add so much more depth that a painting on canvas."
