During the last decade, I have used snapshots as a starting point for my work. Instead of painting solely from found photos, I have also bought anonymous (unsuspecting) customers' snapshots, made them into paintings, and then returned the photos of my paintings to the original owner. Many of my shows are titled in reference to this--such as "Second Set Free". My goal is to force the unsuspecting viewer into re-examining the casual photograph.
Painting can have the aura of the carefully examined handmade object, designed to call attention to the smallest detail of the subject matter. This aura can become threatening when applied to private images not meant for public perusal. I strive to create that shock of invasion, when the viewer becomes acutely aware of the trans-formative elements that turn photo to paint. The literal details frozen into a snapshot are replaced with formal qualities thrusting composition, surface, material, and color into the public eye. I never change the composition of the photo or alter its subject matter, but I enhance the abstract qualities of the image in an attempt to make it beautiful. If successful, the unconscious appreciation of that beauty will surface, while the mind is charged by the dissection of before and after.
In this way, I parallel the role of early proponents of Modernism such as Alfred Barr, who believed it was their job to expose mass audiences to formal paintings and deny their focus on literal subject matter. While I subscribe to the underlying tenets of the modernists, I look for more covert means to express them-- a subversion from below rather than an imposed enlightenment from above. I start with the most throwaway of images--the quick and easy photo snapshot--and through the use of visceral materials and time give them a new meaning.

Painting can have the aura of the carefully examined handmade object, designed to call attention to the smallest detail of the subject matter. This aura can become threatening when applied to private images not meant for public perusal. I strive to create that shock of invasion, when the viewer becomes acutely aware of the trans-formative elements that turn photo to paint. The literal details frozen into a snapshot are replaced with formal qualities thrusting composition, surface, material, and color into the public eye. I never change the composition of the photo or alter its subject matter, but I enhance the abstract qualities of the image in an attempt to make it beautiful. If successful, the unconscious appreciation of that beauty will surface, while the mind is charged by the dissection of before and after.
In this way, I parallel the role of early proponents of Modernism such as Alfred Barr, who believed it was their job to expose mass audiences to formal paintings and deny their focus on literal subject matter. While I subscribe to the underlying tenets of the modernists, I look for more covert means to express them-- a subversion from below rather than an imposed enlightenment from above. I start with the most throwaway of images--the quick and easy photo snapshot--and through the use of visceral materials and time give them a new meaning.
