Tree of Life

"Tree of Life"
18" x 24"
Acrylic on wrapped canvas
My Tree of Life curls just like life itself.  You never know from one minute to the next what will change and how that change will impact your life. "Buckle up," I say, "It could be a wild ride."  

This is my attempt at making a Tree of Life style with paint, instead of with fractal-generating software.  The background is troweled-on plaster and faux finished like I used to do on walls. It's very textural, both visually and to the touch.

I'm happy you are here with me today.

Fusion

"Fusion"
  24" x 36"
Acrylic on wrapped canvas
painted black border
Two elements, solids in their own right, collide. They swirl, liquefy and amalgamate. The synergy of their fiery union bears repeating. 


Please enjoy one of my favorites in the series of abstracted swirl paintings. Today's canvas is not only filled with swirls, some of them have developed tails, adding an active element to the mix.

It's warm, come sip ginger ale with me.

Ballgame

"Ballgame"
24" x 24"
Acrylic on wrapped canvas
painted black border

Throughout the globe—the galaxy, in fact, examples of sports are recognized in the artifacts of nearly every culture. While there is no indication of how these balls were used, it can be assumed the event was spectacularly entertaining due to the number of used ones spiraling in the universe. 


Here is another in my series of fractal wannabes.  Again I attribute my inspiration to Jock Cooper's amazing talent.

Visit again to see more.

Fractalish Desert

"Fractalish Desert"
24" x 24" 
Acrylic on wrapped canvas 
I've confessed to my passion for swirls and have painted a lot of them with a ball motif in hot colors, so when I stepped back to look at them as a body of work I recognized the opportunity to explore the concept with different colors and motifs.  This is what happened.  


I totally enjoyed making this piece. It satisfied my desires to paint sun, sky and mountains without looking anything like a landscape.

Please come back to see more tomorrow.

Fractalish Fire Dance

"Fractalish Fire Dance"
24" x 24" 
Acrylic on wrapped canvas
painted black border
Energy spun, twirled and whirled in this magical realm charged with saturated, hot colors—dazzling my senses.  

My intrigue with fractals continued as I explored the graceful curves of of several swirls in different sizes and colors of balls.  I even swirled the nearly dry paint into the circular shapes with an eighth-inch bristle brush.

Thank you for being here today.

Fractalish

"Fractalish"
24" x 36"
Acrylic on wrapped canvas
black and blue painted border
When I first saw Jock Cooper's artwork I was drawn to his computer generated images with Fibonacci swirls and a bold use of color.  Once we became friends, we both wondered how a painter would execute the essence of what math equations had done for him via a software program.  I assigned myself the challenge.  


This is another in a series of fractal-like paintings I made during this particular quest. I hope you enjoy the series while I work on a few more house portraits.

I always appreciate your visits.

Fractal Frenzy

"Fractal Frenzy"
40" x 30"
Acrylic on canvas 





















I am an artist's agent for a fractal artist in California. I sell his images and animations to rock bands, fashion designers, videographers and corporations looking for unique art.  Jock Cooper at Fractal-Recursions.com  inspired me to try to paint images like he composes via math equations on his computer.  I was commissioned to paint this piece when I refused to sell one similar to it to an admirer.   

Please enjoy images from my archives while I paint some larger pieces.  You are all still in my gracious thoughts.

Music in the Night

"Music in the Night" 
20" x 16" 
Acrylic on wrapped canvas
They played music with a palpable passion that curled into the night air like it had been slathered there with a spreader.  Each note connected to the next as tightly as puzzle pieces marching toward infinity.  

This is a variation on my primary-colored puzzle paintings.  It is also a variation on what is normally digitally created from math equations "run amok."
Well, not exactly, but it's a computer generated art form.  Jock Cooper is the foremost fractal artist on the planet, and this is my interpretation of a segment of one of his images.  As his friend and agent, I have been given permission to add my own twist to his design.  

This painting will be posted on Dailypaintworks.com in my gallery, and for purchase.    

Thank you for visiting today.
