Texas pool party

From an instagram shot at an Order of the Eagles pool in town. Just the pure summer indulgence of the scene grabbed me. The animation of all the figures suggested a tapestry and I was interested in flattening out depth. Exhibited in Dallas 214 show at the Latino Cultural Center.

Trinity Groves, Fabrication Street

Old country lane in Trinity Groves, still surviving for now. Simplified flat color.

Corner of Parvia and Bedford. All the surrounding lots have been bulldozed. Experimenting with posterization-based simplification.

Window Rock, Arizona

Painted from a Flickr photo. Brake-light flash and timeless sandstone.

Boothbay Harbor, Maine

Painted from a vacation snapshot. The near foreground was dissolved into quantum uncertainty rather than adhering to closeup detail. Private collection.

In the midst of the debacle of getting kicked out of Continental Gin Building along with 60 other artists, I thought I was going to be able to rent space in a tin shed across from this one. I was interested in the contrast between convulsive graffiti and the simplicity of the shed.
