I am known for my use of bright, vibrant colors but just this once, I did something out of character in a very different state of mind. I worked with just black and white and it was one of the most unusual experiences. I painted non-stop, as if in a trance, hands dancing all over the canvas taped on my studio wall. When I stepped back and saw it, I said to myself "That is it!" It was stark, strong and had a frenetic pace and movement to it (which I felt while I worked on it). It was devoid of colors. Naturally, I called it Devoid.
