If I could really slow down the way I see, put a camera in my mind, and take stills and then make a montage of the individual elements of information I saw as I looked around the room, I think it would look something like one of these paintings.

When you explore movement in drawing, both physical and mental, you end up recording transparent levels of real space; the result can be viewed as a mental architecture. This is certainly true for the paintings, as they demonstrate my mind’s ability to restructure and color space for aesthetic and expressive means.

At some point in time during the process, I have to deal with the fact that the proportional relationships of what I carefully just drew no longer matter. The perceptual process explores the problem of ordering visual information which is in a state of constant flux. There is no better way to explore and articulate my mind’s disposition over real physical space then by perceptual drawing.
