Inspired by patterns in nature, fish scales, reptile scales, insect wings, as a starting place. The paintings grow to completion and people see what they need to in them. Fractals, repetition, and serendipity also plays a large part.

This collection of digital images printed on stainless steel took root in my mind many years ago. After years of hearing instructors discuss compositional rules I desperately wanted to create a series of work that would effectively break all these rules. I used this as a starting point for this body of work.

As I began to collect these images I immediately fell in love with the organic object. Magnifying the image to a perfect sixteen by sixteen inch square enhances the texture and color of the objects but also begins to move many of the photographs into abstraction. I found myself drawn to round objects and combed parks, produce aisles, and even scoured ancient Chinese medicine shops to find my subjects.

The images were produced using a flatbed scanner which allows for greater detail and resolution. They are printed on stainless steel and the first editions in a series of thirty.
