Midori
   
2004 - Digital Media
   
 

October 9, 2004

Midori is the Japanese word for green, for those at home keeping score. I'm thinking of giving a lot of these newest paintings Japanese names; partially as a tribute and thank-you to everyone visiting this website from Japan, and, well, mostly because I'm trying to learn this language of yours. I think I'm now at the level of a two-year-old. I can count to ten and name colors. Whee.

As you can see, this is the painting that I used for the Gallery section banner. There is an excellent combination of texture, detail, and motion, and that's why I wanted to use it. There are obviously a lot of digital paintings in this series that follow from this mold, but each variation was so good I could never bear to part with any.
