Preen - Limited Edition 1 of 1 Artwork

My digital images are distorted using various tools and filters within an imaging software application resulting in color palettes which can be used individually or combined with other pallets. Landscapes, human forms or objects may appear within these palettes revealing unexpected visual ideas. Additionally figures, objects and faces from pencil sketches scanned and imported into a layer can then be used as a guide for the selection tool or a pen tool creating a space in which to fill in patterns within these figures, objects, or faces which can then be integrated into a new or preconceived theme. “Panta Rhei” Heraclitus of Ephesus 535 – c. 475 BCE) Pre-Socratic Greek philosopher. A native of the Greek city Ephesus, Ionia. A friend recently compared my digital paintings to the Greek philosopher Heraclitus who was famous for his insistence on ever-present change in the universe describing it in two words: “panta rhei”. Literally everything flows, everything is constantly changing, from the smallest grain of sand to the stars in the sky. “No person ever steps in the same river twice”, “the path up and down are one and the same”.
