Riot

This is an abstract I’ve been working on while doing the scrolls (along with a couple of paintings that probably aren’t finished, or maybe never will be). It’s been wild watching the outpouring of affection for the little crowd video on Vimeo. There is no doubt that I set out to make something that people might enjoy, but it’s always surprising when people actually seem to enjoy it…. a regular crowd pleaser.

The audience has inserted itself into the piece now… claiming certain characers at certain frame counts as “ME”… and weirdly, they are usually right! Also, I finally got a negative comment… restoring some sense of balance (negative comments of course weigh more than positive… or is it that they are further out from the fulcrum?).
