"Jasper I & II" are acrylic on panel, 14x15" each.  These were part of my recent pouring experiments.  The highly organic outcome you tend to get with pouring can feel both internally and externally familiar.  These reminded me of one of my favorite minerals, jasper. 

"Citrus" is 36x48", acrylic on canvas.  The under-painting was scraped with a tool meant for creating faux wood effects in scenery.  The resulting grooves made for a fun foundation and gave the surface interest.  My loose goal with this one was just more experimentation with the circular template I found in the shop dumpster.  :)  I love the depth the overlays create, both with the positive circular shapes and the negative diamond shapes in-between.  This piece has a lot of pleasing movement and color for me. 

"Phases" is an acrylic pouring on canvas, 36x36, with a circular cut-away mask applied to it.  I won't get into the grueling details of the development; the mystery is appealing in this one.  I love how the combination of the banded pouring and rows of circles creates a rotating motion, the most obvious association being of planets.
