My techniques
I began years ago ,working with acrylics, with Sam Golden , paint chemist, to develop the first acrylic gels. His purpose was to create what the artists needed, as the needs arose. My first thoughts were a thicker ,clearer paint. Back in the mid 1970's one could only thicken the paint by using things like sand or rocks, or objects that already existed. To get a "clear" paint, I used gloss medium .I began to add glass marbles, pieces of plastic, and broken car windshield glass , then wooden shoes, sandals,a guitar and I worked on plastic(plexiglass , or Perspex) , I wanted transparency AND thickness , both. Sam invented Acrylic gel , in about 1978, I got my first bucket through an artist friend named John Griefen. From there , I came up with many possibilities.As the scale of my art grew to large murals , I also wanted it light , in weight, because gel was heavy. Sam produced many variations on the original gel, now there are some 22 types! I wanted metallic, he'd make metallics, I wanted glitter, he'd make glitter, if I wanted fluorsecent, he'd make fluorescent. And as other artists joined in ,Sam became the favorite paintmaker of all the cutting edge artists, because he was capable of producing the paint you wanted , in very quick time. And early on, my search for unusual supports, grew ,too. I experimented with painting on plastics ,hologrammed, mylar,wooden doors, plywood, canvas, papers of all kinds including metallic posterboards,even astroturf(used for football domes). I began to use spoons, very big , plastic ones, baking equipment , use to make pastries, mustard squeeze bottles, hair coloring bottles, expanding on Pollock's "drip " paintings. Pollock had to go beyond Picasso, I felt ,I had to go beyond Pollock, and he'd covered a lot of territory.in his rather short career, from the first large scale murals, to the end of his life, but he was the man to "beat". Some of my work such as "Life and Death" is partially figurative, and there are many paintings I have not digitalized yet, that combine figurative elements,related more to early Pollock, with abstraction. In some cases some are entirely 2 D while more are 3D, in the years around the early 1980's to 1990's I made some very large mural type paintings which were exhibited in Paris, at Gallery Piltzer, that I began to feel I had reached beyond Pollock , which was my ultimate goal. One has to be challenged, by the artists you feel are at the top of the game. As I looked back to Renaissance artists,I knew the scale was very important, the "drawing" in a painting had to be just right and I wanted to combine those features with the color of The NY School, and Color Field painters, like Olitski, Frankenthaler , Noland and others. And I extracted techniques from every facet of art that I could think of , adding fluorescents, hologrammed glitter , plastic rhinestones(jewels) ,thick and thin textures,high contrasts, and close values, and I just kept combining and combining, in every way I could imagine.
My Philosophy
My philosophy on art is simple. "make the best you possibly can ,and make it come alive". What makes the greatest art, is to breathe life into what you make. There are many artists who can draw well, or paint well, and are technically perfect. But if the art has no life, it is dead. My preference is that when a person walks into a room,they cannot help but notice my art.Maybe it is jarring or even annoying , but I want it to draw your attention, and you will know it is mine. I don't make art for decoration, I make it to stay in your mind, and for generations to come.And I try to make it unforgettable. I don't try to compete with what is fashionable, I just try to make the best art I can,and bring it to life.
