From the depths of creation volcanoes explode. Seedlings grow into towering forests. Water flows downhill with the force of gravity. It is so powerful it cuts through rock and carved the Grand Canyon. It is gravity that keeps the planets spinning around the sun, and allows life to exist here on earth. It is the nature of our universe. As gravity forms universes it is the controlling force of Gravitational Art. Just as gravity keeps our feet planted on the ground, pulls braches from dead trees in the forest, and keeps the planets in their orbits, it molds and shapes the paint. This undeniable force that holds us to the earth has given us the beauty of nature. Likewise, gravity has created these paintings. Paint swirls and mixes on their thin surface. It moves with the planet. It is a dance between the motion of the body and the movement of the earth.

As the force of gravity pulls the paint it creates new universes. This spirit of creation blooms in flowers, water and fire, ice and tropical plants, all shaped as nature moves the paint. The paint fights like the forces of creation, imposing the will of nature over the human will which attempts to control it. Gravitational Art mimics the natural forces that have formed the earth and the cosmos, creating something beautiful that is infused with that same spirit of creation. In the tradition of Jackson Pollock, Gravitational Art is a harmonious balance between man and nature. The movement of the body merges with the spinning planet.

First the blank canvas is leveled, then paint is applied in swirls, lines, and splatters. The brush seldom touches the canvas, allowing the colors to mix naturally in their application. Many layers of paint are applied, so the thin glassy surface contains a universe of spider-webs and lakes of color, each color fighting for position. Over time the paint is pushed and pulled by the force of gravity. It takes most of these paintings more than 48 hours to dry. In the drying process the paint swirls with the spirit of the universe. It forms a world of painted creatures; creating explosions of color controlled by forces that reform intellect and passion—temperature, gravity, and time. The color becomes a pure expression of the force of gravity. As the paint is pulled downward to the center of the canvas or drips off the edges, it contains the power of the spirit which brought it to life. In this process the human will combines with the forces of nature to create beautiful paintings.
