As I walked around many Home Depots, I saw colors, shapes, patterns, lighting and objects that came together to create what I called a paintable moment. I photographed these images and then used them as a tool to re-create these everyday retail objects as bold expressions of color and composition. My intent was not to portray an exact interpretation, but to create a sense of delight in having the viewer see the object(s) and the abstraction. I want to express something positive, artistically serious, and perhaps whimisical.
