Sharing this additional video of Through The Flowers, currently installed in San Luis Obispo’s mission plaza to show the transparent and double sided elements of the piece. Each segment is made with screen printed drawings and layers of water based paints on transparent vinyl. Similar to my normal process on muslin, I was very excited to work with this new medium of vinyl to be able to keep parts of the piece see through and to be able to create an installation visible ...from both sides. Note, as I move the camera, you will see different colors on the outside and the inside of the installation. This is from layers of under and over painting. I use layering in my work to create depth. In a transparent installation environment, depth is visible in a new way. #throughtheflowers is up throughout the month of April. Follow the flowers to @slomuseumofart. In addition, limited edition prints from the installation are availble exclusively through @slomuseumofart . . . . #publicart #immersiveart #artinstallation #mixedmediaart #screenprintart #sanluisobispo See more

I am more than my physical body. Consistent dedication to the work and getting through the physical labor - even when it’s not the most enjoyable, such as here, where I am layering these pieces with an additional layer of vinyl and grommeting for a secure installation. Sometimes what you hope will take a few hours, ends up taking days. The work gets the work done - nothing else. (Video is a time lapse of grommeting two of the pieces.)
