Every painting I make starts the same way. The whole surface goes dark before anything else happens.
Then I carve the subject out of it with light. Whatever the light doesn’t reach stays dark. The dark is doing half the work.
Before this, I spent thirty years as a designer. That career taught me one thing worth keeping: what you leave out matters more than what you put in. Active Void is just that idea, but with paint on it.
Because at the end of the day, I want my art to feel like it belongs in your space. Haunting enough to catch your eye. Honest enough to feel real. And just cheeky enough to make you smile.
