My statement
|
|
I try to push the boundaries of what can be considered art.
I use computers to create most of my artwork. My work brings to mind commercial graphic design and illustration, although I am my only client, and the products that I advertise are my daydreams and ideas.
I use bright, strong, often unusual color combinations to give the viewer the feeling of entering a new world. I draw and paint by hand on the computer using a digitizer tablet. I also draw and paint using computer code and equations.
My "Electric Rainbows" series is entirely computer-generated, without any pre-drawn shapes. I delegated the creative process to computers by writing a computer program that automatically draws random trees, clouds, shrubs, and a rainbow over a randomly-colored landscape. I spend hours editing the images, acting as my computer's assistant.
Generative art has been abstract for the most part. I take generative art in a new direction by creating computer-generated graphic landscape paintings. I use the computer program to paint in the same style that I would otherwise be painting in by hand.
