By mixing paint and catalysts I recreate the push-pull forces
found in nature that shape and mold all things,
to create satellite views of this planet and places
scattered throughout the universe.
These are abstracts waiting to be called realistic, when technology "catches up".

"A Brief Moment in Time", 2001, 48" x 36"
By mixing paint with catalysts, I create active paint experiments that mimic the push-pull forces found in nature that shape and mold all things.
As a result, I paint satellite views of the earth and other places
scattered throughout the universe.
*Theses are abstracts waiting to be called realistic,
when technology "catches up".
This is a physical investigation of earth and paint.

"Nature has her own mode for doing each thing,
and has somewhere old us plainly;
and if we decide to choose our own ways,
as opposed to nature's,
nature will not be slow in undeceiving us."

Born one month and a day before the first space craft,

Something Very Different Can Still Be the Very Same Thing
Looking at a planet from a distance is very different upon entry and again
on the ground. Often, the image I offer is meant as the initial image to embark.
I.E.: The painting below has a red circular painting within the larger painting.
The yellow hazy dot within the mini painting represents where the larger
yellow painting exists from a distance.
