This painting began with a specific palette. As I was painting it occurred to me I was painting hell fire colors, so I ran with that impression. As I tend to gravitate towards geometric shapes, parallelograms specifically, my waiting room idea began to grow. As I love how teal looks with orange and black, that was an obvious choice for me as an added eye-popping addition. Most of my work is done in planned steps. I paint, then take a picture of it and import it into Photoshop to get a feel for how it's progressing. I experiment with ideas digitally before putting the next layer of paint down on the canvas. This helps to prevent unwanted results, as I can get confirmation that what I see in my head is on target before moving on to the next step with the painting. (Like most artists, I've "ruined" many a piece with ideas that weren't quite right.) I shot a few pics on this one during its creation. My idea of tv's in Hell came to me as I was looking for my next step. The colors of fire and deep smoke surrounding my shapes struck me as televisions in hell. The last step was to take a charcoal stick and add rudimentary tv stands to the bottom of selected "tv's" and boom, complete. Of course it wouldn't be Hell without the fact that they get a hundred million channels, nothing is actually on. Frame is shown as demonstration. This piece is not currently signed. You choose if you want a signature on the front or back.

"Predictably unpredictable" describes my process. Using mostly brayers to apply and manipulate acrylics, the outcome is often somewhat unexpected, and the discovery factor is high. I have an idea of what will occur when I put paint to canvas, but not an exact one. My process is one of discovery and exploration, continually experimenting with color, texture and underpainting, with a healthy dose of “what happens if”. In addition to brayers, I use rags, fingers, palette knives, squirt bottles and the occasional brush, graphite and marker. The primary focus with most of my work is the affect humans have on the natural world. In the bulk of my paintings, the natural world is represented by color. Man's footprint appears as black lines, marks and shapes. The viewer determines if our imprint is a positive or negative one.
