Tornado Series

acrylic on magazine page, approx. 11” x 8”; arranged chronologically – most recent at top.
This 160-tornado swarm was executed between October 2009 and the end of May 2010. It is a painterly consideration of the terror of beauty and catastrophe on the horizon.

In June 2010 it was exhibited in its entirety at Damon Dash’s The Dash Gallery, Tribeca.

The band Cubic Zirconia feature “sound_#53” on the cover of their Black and Blue release.

In October 2010 a six painting coda brought the superoutbreak to its conclusion.

Framed against a deep, cloud-free sky, I had no prior visual referent for the geyser's dazzling whiteness. Unbidden, I thought: Heaven.
