I’ve been painting and creating on my iPhone and iPad since 2010, but it wasn’t until the Summer of 2014, when in preparation for my first solo show, that I worked with a model in my studio and set out to create a specific and directed series of digitally manipulated photographs.
For the “Pixel Push” Series, I used my abstract paintings as backdrops for the specifically posed photographs. Then I created custom software recipes and filters within several iPad apps that use specific and random rearrangement of pixels to create work that at first glance appears classically beautiful yet reveals unnatural, even supernatural, compositions when viewed up close.
