Mutant madball with squid legs on faded collage background. I love this piece because it represents a mind-shift in how I approach my work and process. This was inspired by the mighty Paul Rentler (aka PRENTLER) because of the use of digitizing in the process and overall contrast, line weight, and damaged/faded collage background. Printing and copies are nothing new to me, I always used that in my collage work, but everything opened up when I started composing the main figure digitally. Suddenly I could scale to my advantage and not be limited by the physical media, and also cut out things fast and precise. The mess and the mud could be reduced or eliminated, but I could still have some chaos within the form. I'm still printing it out and assembling it by hand and doing some cut-outs, but, wow, everything changed with this piece. There's clarity in this way of working. This is also the first piece in my "Choose Your Warrior" painting series. 11"x14" B&W (limited edition of 5) high-quality archival prints on 100# matte card printed by Print-Keg, a professional fine-art print service. Signed, Titled, Stamped, Numbered, and Dated.
