My sister in gave me an interesting image of an old movie theater we knew. The image had been constructed with facets. I asked John if he could make a painting similar to this. He said yes but he wanted to give the idea a more exciting structure using a variety of other images. Moving toward this commission we reviewed digital sketches that showed me what the painting would look like. I gave him the go ahead, and he went to work. I even got to see the painting in his studio a couple of times before it was complete. It was a pleasure to be included. He also posted the progressive images on the web as he got closer to completion. Palace now hangs in my dining room and invokes fond memories for me of going to movies with my sister.
I was hired to create a number of visual components for the Colorado Welcome Center in Burlington Colorado. On the exterior is a buffalo glyph that I made out of redwood. It is painted in purple. The interior has a large vertical painting of hay bales with mountains rising behind them. The painting is acrylic on a plywood substrate. I applied floating aluminum letters to the painting. It is a 60 degree parallelogram, a shape that was used as part of a travel guidance system I created including a large map and accompanying brochure racks. They both used parallelogram flags for geographical division. Over the counter is a round mountain painting done in the same style as the entry painting.
