.. it really is ‘hands-on’ …

Friday, September 26th, 2008

As part of a magazine assignment I had the pleasure of meeting artist Roger Hutchison. What I found most interesting about Roger, among other things, was that he now paints only with his hands after having become dissatisfied with the results he was getting with brushes.

You know, sometimes when we see something isn’t working, we continue to try to make it work. Roger, on the other hand, gave in to it and did the unexpected, and to me that totally works!

Nice goin’ Roger !

… water and swimmers …

Tuesday, September 30th, 2008

This past weekend I wanted to take a different look at competitive swimming. I’ve long been fasinated with how liquids look when they are stopped in time, and adding in the swimmers made for some interesting looks when the two were combined. These are all spontaneous images and I expect there will be more experimenting in the future.
