"e" Series Reaction

On October 1st, 2009 I began posting dot art paintings from a group called “e” Series Reaction. They follow some paintings that were more homogeneous in color and design, my “Alpha Series.” However, I felt constrained by my process. Hence, I dubbed this new group “Reaction.”

Many of the images were inspired by artwork I’ve seen. Other paintings draw upon specific objects, places and experiences between April and June of 2007. For the moment I’ve stuck to the vowels for grouping my works. “e” follows “a” this time around. There’s some overlap in the time period from “a” Series Next. I did some rearranging of my idea list along the way. Below are all the paintings in a checkerboard slideshow.



Now I am ready to go back to the 6” x 6” size canvases and paint abstract patterns without a story. In the meantime I will be editing my ideas list down some more. When I return to the smaller size, I will finish the second half of the “e” Series.
