A few words about meanings and potential.
My paintings are centered on the new thinking surrounding the potential within everything, everywhere and at all times - both seen and unseen - but sometimes experienced by us individually infrequently. Think of the paintings from the perspective as visual questions which are directed at understanding the primary components that animates life. In some way, I feel this is what the cave painters were doing back in the Pleistocene epoch.
The paintings address capturing the concept of motion in tiny quantum particles which science has yet to decode more or less even capture visually as of today. A way to think of the pictures is to think of the way astrophysicists currently photograph stars and galaxies. They can photograph them as our eyes see them through the Hubble telescope or they can photograph them via their infrared image, X-rays, gamma waves or even microwave images to name but a few of the technologies which look at what lies beyond what our 5 senses can fathom without technical assistance.
The technology used to assist the
astrophysicists actually changes how the objects
visually appear to us. Think of these paintings as rendering all of
those technologies output plus some not yet conceived of. Therefore think of the
paintings as scientific images/photos and not simply as abstract
paintings.
