The background image for this creation is a battered, wrinkled sheet metal fence I photographed in Mandalay, Myanmar. I later digitally applied hand-drawn white circles onto this still image. For balance, I placed one large blue circle and one small red dot in strategic positions. In the animation I then added an array of vertically shifting hard-edged circles onto a pulsating background.
My kinetic animated creations explore motion, vibration, energy, gesture, and juxtaposition while incorporating geometric or architectonic background images captured during my travels to more than one hundred countries. I later add graphic design elements, typically in a modular matrix grid arrangement with occasional hand-drawn brush strokes to create designs based on my whim of the moment yet controlled by honed visual perspectives that integrate balance, proportion, color, shape, buoyancy, and often a bit of humor.
