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.
This is one of seven sculptures commissioned by the University of Colorado Athletic Department for a large events room in the Folsom Field Addition. The sculptures were designed to hang on very thin and tall walls that separate the eastern windows. They are made of wood and metal, painted with acrylics. They incorporate recycled metal and wood components, along with hand milled and carved wood components. They also have glyphs that I have created. It measures approximately 76" x 18".
