Q: Could you give a brief description
A: First I find the material I want to work with, a book or magazine usually falls into my hands. Then I just make a different painting on each page trying to get a nice variety of work. After painting in the book I project the paintings large onto canvas and make a bigger painting. The projector is a video game, like xbox.
