Oil on Particle Board 4'x4'
Artist's Collection
This piece was started by taking a picture of myself leaning over one of the drafting tables with the front angled down so that the rear of the table would be at the highest point I could manage. Then another image was used for the triangle, and another for producing an outline for the singularity. Next I used a projector to super impose each image in a manageable position so that I could out line each image onto a 4'x4' white primed particle board. Finally I just filled in the blanks with oil paint to completed the image you see here.

Paper and oil on particle board 5'x4'
Artist's Collection
The process started with a white primed surface. Next two thirds of the surface was covered in paper pamphlets and VA hand book pages from the Veterans' Association. Then a selection of images were combined to create the effective content creating a sort of controversial response for homeless veterans. Finally the process of painting the image based on a representational color schema.

Oil on canvas 3'x4'
Artist's Collection
This piece started with a stretched canvas primed with gesso. Next a recreation of a sketch and some miner adjustments lightly re-sketched on the surface. Then selection of three colors were selected from a color pallet that were my least favorite. Finally those colors were adjusted by combining two of the three in different directions, and creating light to dark variations to give depth.
