Construction of the painting is based first on expanding the origins of energy that exist in nature. Secondly it is a result and in thought based on representations of both deep cellular structure in chemical reactions. Finally it reflects the anatomy and botany of humans, animals and plants. There is a focus on what happens when they meet. There are different levels of interactions and I am looking to find the underbelly and the force that sometimes creates a singular image. Awareness extends to seeking out the origins of memory, where science ends and the unseen and unmet find themselves in another playing field. The experiences are bound by the picture plane, but do not necessarily obey well.
