DESCRIPTION:Ornamental Figure: The language of embellishment and the historic idea of 
 the female figure as decoration\n\n2223 Market Street | San Francisco\nArt 
 on display November 4 thru January 4, 2007\nHours: 5:30-9:30pm Sun-Thurs, 
 5:30 – 11:00pm Fri-Sat\n\nABOUT THE ARTIST AND THIS EXHIBITION:\nDuring 
 my architectural and design studies, I became fascinated with ornament and 
 patterns. My interests lie with how ornamentation has been traditionally 
 applied to objects to enhance their beauty. The stylized depiction of the 
 female form has also often been used as ornamentation.\n\nIn these 
 paintings, I incorporate images of classical female nudes with antique 
 textile patterns. The contours of the human figure interact with the lines 
 that form the pattern, reducing the depiction of the figure to the level of 
 the ornament. I then superimpose these linear, graphic representations upon 
 richly layered ornate foundations. I embed in the paintings materials used 
 for decoration, such as flowers, vintage cigarette cards, printed papers, 
 and henna patterns, and decorative techniques such as stenciling and 
 gilding. Through the union of images, materials and techniques, I seek to 
 create works of sensual beauty, and to explore the language of 
 embellishment and the historic idea of the female figure as 
 decoration.\n\nFor more information about this artist or exhibition, please
