This painting can be displayed horizontal or vertical. This painting is from my Reflections of the Future series. It is inspired by a road trip along the coast of California. Throughout my travels I found myself gazing into water, admiring the movements, colours and reflections of the world around me. Reflections can be clear or distorted—transforming our view of the present. In this series I manipulate my surroundings using reflections in pools, lakes and skyscrapers. Using squeeze bottles filled with liquid paint I built this painting from the ground up with hundreds of lines and dots. After years of experimenting with gravity and rotating my canvas, I am able to manipulate where and how each drip will fall. As in real life construction, the architectural aspects of my work are calculated, measured and controlled in order to assure precise locations of each line. As in nature, the environmental elements are more spontaneous, unpredictable and liquid.to assure precise locations of each line.
