Part of an ongoing series exploring the unintentional(?) performance art of Colonel Sanders in a formal painting approach. This series is heavily influenced by abstract expressionists, hard edge painters, and many post 1960s approaches. In this particular piece, I started with a 1990s era Colonel logo and obscured/obfuscated from there. I use the Colonel more as a figurative starting point to then push the other elements of painting I need to explore. Similar to how Pollock or Siqueros often started with a representational/figurative drip as an under-painting. The color palette reflects the KFC colors that have used over the years (white, black, red and blue), with the addition of the colored sharpies, which I will push more in 2017.

I am an artist who works in finance, so I make conceptual art about finance/corporations. I live in Frederick, MD with my family and work as an institutional investor. I studied art with Bill Lundberg, Peter Saul, Linda Montano among others, and currently serve on the College of Fine Arts Advisory Council for the University of Texas College of Fine Arts.
