This suite of grisaille paintings was created using a palette knife to scrape paint across a thick paper surface, revealing the silhouettes of objects deliberately placed beneath. The resulting images are enigmatic landscapes of light and shadow.

"From a distance, it is as if one were looking at the scratched negative of an aerial photograph of a distant planet."
John Yau
