ABOUT THE ARTWORK

'Palette of Hawaiian Faces' 2017 30x24". 40 layers for this print. This is a real print. What comes out of the printer is the original art. The Hawaiian Islands boast a colorful past stretching long before the overthrow of Queen Lili’uokalani by America. Because of its unspoiled beauty, it eventually attracted a melting pot of people from Asia, America, and Europe. You can see this diversity in their faces. There are about 40 sketches and separations involved in creating this print. Paper size, 30”x24” (size can be larger with special printing). Limited edition of 30 prints on heavy watercolor paper. Hand-signed, named, numbered and dated.

Born in the U.S. Educated in the U.K. I describe my approach as print layerism. It’s a combination of analog and digital thinking. It’s where the lithographic technique that Toulouse Lautrec employed meets limitless digital possibilities. It's the separations or layers from old school technology transferred to a computer screen. Each layer is like a printing plate. There are between four and 40 layers per print. Every piece starts off with a sketch. Throughout history, ideas have started as a scribble on paper, a drawing on wet sand or on the back of a napkin—from cave paintings to Michelangelo’s sketchbooks. Consider the clothes you wear. The airplane. The iconic stop sign. Just look around and you'll find that nearly every design you see started off as a sketch. That's what makes sketches so intriguing. My sketches are not copied like a poster and then printed. I add layers and depth, transforming the original drawing with a modern perspective. What comes out of the printer is original art. The output is an archival print, produced by an archival inkjet printer on thick watercolor paper. Limited edition of 30 prints only, named, dated and signed before the file is destroyed.
