Art, Math and Science combine beautifully to create images of movement and depth. At last night's opening of my latest exhibit, Guided - Journey into the Fourth Dimension, I was pleased to hear from guests how compelled they felt to enter into the paintings and wander around exploring the space. That space proved quite different for each viewer. One of my goals as a painter is to provide a space for viewers to explore life, both external and internal. The similarities between the macrocosm and the microcosm cannot be ignored.

Abstract Watercolor Painting derived from three points
.
All of the shapes are derived from three points outside of the picture plane. These three points are the vertices of an arbitrary triangle. From those points, measurements are taken and arcs are drawn. the intersecting lines and curves create new points from which measurements are taken and arcs or straight lines are drawn. With the resulting shapes as a foundation for the painting, layers of watercolor are applied until the space through which a viewer may travel is created. At that point, the painting is complete..... and I move on.
