Slinging paint.
I make my own oil paint. I use natural and synthetic historic pigments, resurrected and more vibrant than ever in the 21st century. Color that harmonizes energies. I'm not actually slinging paint but I control the fluidness of the paint which effects the making of the painting. How I paint and create pictures is greatly effected by creating my own oil colors and mediums. I have an intimate connection with my materials that translates into the varied subject matter and physical aspects of my work. I invite the viewer to participate in my paintings on a level similar to immersive art presentation, however, not using av equipment, but the paint itself, which carries qualities unlike modern chemical colors, combined with 40 years of painting experience.
