By The Way


I'm not really sure what this piece is all about...and maybe that's the point in itself. The title signifies there's something unknown, something unseen, something else, though it is not revealed. I think of it kind of like an accent piece...its not meant to punch you square in the nose when you see it on a wall, but it's definitely more than a color field, a poster, or a filler painting. I think the idea of the thing is to be below the surface. To gently wander its way into your consciousness until you give it a good look over and realize there's something there. Much of my work is impactful and bold and I suppose, with this piece, I wanted it to creep under the radar and surprise the viewer as they move closer, look closer, and begin to learn the piece.
