Cognitive Expedition

“Cognitive Expedition” is a body of works that goes back to the roots of my design process. It is the core process in which all my paintings are created. Beginning as rough sketched studies, to the final form of idealized rendering via ink on paper. Everything starts somewhere and for the fully psychedelic paintings to stand out so iconically, I need to create the works in black and white first, as studies, in order to see the kinetic dance of the black and white fighting for dominance in the optics. Typically, this step of the process is done behind the scenes, but as 2024 has been a year of unknowns with my health and body, I wanted to share my processes even further than normal, as the process itself is a work of art on its own. Each of the artworks are drawn with Micron archival pens on Arches BFK paper which will ensure they last a lifetime under proper care. Each piece is made in one go and if errors happen, then they are destroyed and never released to the public. So, this collection is filled with the works that have made it through the challenges of being a perfectionist and attention driven artist.
