Continuing with my current obsession with patterns and vibration, here’s my latest creation. I created this piece with nothing but a Micron Pen, a Moleskine and a bit of time in the evenings. The only rules in place are no intersecting lines, and no curves. Save for a few wavering lines due to everything being freehanded, I accomplished what I set out to do.
Lately one of my greatest inspirations has been a flight I took back from New York, with a layover in Las Vegas. Besides flying over the Pacific to Tokyo, the flight over the desert was the first time I had ever seen such beautiful emptiness. Here was an expanse of land, devoid of man-made forms. Occasionally the barren landscape was crossed by a line, a highway, or perhaps power lines. I saw many repeating shapes in the desert formations. Here were monuments to time, stone hewn away by millions of years’ exposure to the elements. I may not have millions of years to complete my works, but I can at least pay tribute to the great forces of the universe
