Original artwork description:

Two conjoined transparent tubes are suspended high in the air. Inside the horizontal tube is a landscape which mimics the environment. Like a syringe the orange figure moves forward causing a circular piece of glass to move forward from within the vertical tube. The newly created hole within the vertical tube emits light which passes through the circular piece like a magnifying glass. Light then bounces to each miniature cloud like grains of silver in film. By doing so the figure is able to capture a memory within the tube.

About the Work

Each painting is intricately detailed with the intent of capturing the viewers attention regardless if they’re observing from afar or close up. Using a painting technique called automatism allows the plethora of shapes to form in the moment. This adds a level of uniqueness not found otherwise. Additionally I add layers of transparent paint to create a rich and complex color scheme. By combining the two elements, you’ll be presented with a piece of artwork that breathes personality into any environment.

Artist Statement

Using automatic painting techniques, my mind enters a meditative state. As I begin to follow the strings of the subconscious web, the organic forms develop within the painting. One form leads to another, like a trail of thoughts. It’s as if my mind and the paint are in sync with each other. As I explore my own mind, gaining an understanding of myself; I’m also gaining an understanding of the forms.
