Strange and Uncertain 2014. Digital painting. Size variable.
This painting is different from most I have been doing recently in that it developed over a 10 day to two week period and has a non-centered composition. It still makes use of fractal and 3D elements, but the fractals are used in sections of the painting rather than overall, edge to edge. In many ways Strange and Uncertain is a continuation of a series of abstract paintings I made a few years ago. Those paintings can be seen elsewhere on this blog (May - October 2011).

Another new one. Thinking about the big bang. Occurs to me that it happened in absolute silence since there was no one there to hear it. Strictly speaking there wasn't even silence. That's something we invented. Of course, now we can hear the big bang as noise picked up by a satellite. Which is interesting. The sound of creation is noise. Anyway, this is the kind of stuff that sometimes passes through my mind when I make these pictures. The moral of this story is: when thinking of the beginning (or any of the other "big questions") it's best to keep an open mind. Otherwise, you'll be pretending to know what you don't. And you'll miss out on some interesting thoughts and experiences.

Something I just finished. As often happens with my work, a specific person came to mind as the picture began to take form. In this case my late father, Edwin, who was the person who got me started on this crazy path called Art. He was not given to wasting words...
April Song (in memory of my father). Digital painting. Size variable.
Trying out a new format. This image and Dragon (see below) make use of some new capabilities I just discovered in the fractal generating software I've been using: Fractal Domains. These new images are meant to be printed at 80 inches wide on a translucent substrate to enable backlighting.
Out of Nowhere. Digital Painting. Dimensions variable (up to 80 inches wide).

Here are a few images from and a couple of rough videos of my exhibition Walking the Changes at the Theo Ganz Studio in Beacon, NY. www.theoganzstudio.com
The show centers around two installations. Each consists of 12 digital images projected onto a wall mounted sculpture. The larger of the two installations is 56 x 56 x 4 inches (not including the projector.)
There are also several prints in the show including Anima Redux and Greetings Fellow Earth Creature which are posted below. (Remember clicking on a thumbnail image will reveal a larger jpg.) Another piece, which consists of 12 images from a series I did a few years ago called Anima Dream, is displayed on a high res monitor at Theo Ganz. Jpgs of the Anima images can be found elsewhere on this blog.
