Yashica, Kodak & Bencini. I think I paint things in tidy, neat rows to add order to the chaos around me. Or maybe I just like things organised and straight forward.

The truth is, these are directly influenced by the somewhat tidy rows of Wayne Thiebaud‘s paintings. You can see what I mean here. I clean my rows up a bit more, tighter with the paint and details, and my subjects are all mechanical with hard edges and usually painted straight on.

This painting will be part of my first solo exhibition in New York City at the George Billis Gallery starting on October 13 and running through November 14, 2015.
