How does the analog talk to the digital?  The bit give voice to the atom? Paint lives in the analog world, matter made of atoms.  Nothing goes on or off, or changes from one state to another, without going through a transition.  To mimic the digital world, I use the Giclee print as a source of primary material, not as a reproduction.  I use the computer's DNA of information - "bits" - to create collages by integrating scanned materials and then generating a flow of information through copy/paste, working as fast as my mind can think.  This creative process mirros both the computational speeds of our digital age, which integrates unparalleled amounts of information, and the evolving technology of generation and replication that we see in nano-machines, genetic algorithms, biology stem cell research, and cloning.
