The original is not for sale through Saatchi. Please find my artist website (or order a print here) instead Electronics for Cats is in much the same style as Divertissment (above). The extruded acrylic is denser. Darker areas were added using soft gel and less white. these were applied with a small brush. The second photograph was taken with oblique sunlight hitting the lower edge of the painting. The small area of sunlight shows off the colors and emphasizes the three dimensional shapes of the extruded acrylic pattern. If cats engineered electronics, I think they’d create something that would bemuse the ants and mice. Or perhaps one could envision an engineering project post-feline-interaction. The title is a bit of an homage to one of the Wallace and Gromit short animated films, “A Grand Day Out“. Wallace, and inventor, and his dog Gromit decide to spend a cheese-eating holiday on the moon. While they’re building their rocket, Gromit can be seen reading a book “Electronics for Dogs”. Cats are so much more visual and unpredictable.

I am offering a selection of Abstracts and abstracted Science theme work on Saatchi. Please search for me online for my Landscape and Tree of Life bodies of work. I often ask myself whether I'm a physical scientist who also paints, or a painter who has studied a bit too much physics and chemistry. Physics and Chemistry have become a big part of how I model and understand the world. I approach paint texture in terms of it's viscoelastic properties, and color in terms of pigments and their spectra. If you take a cadmium inorganic red and it's organic substitute, gently tweak them so they look almost identical in indirect daylight, will they behave differently in incandescent light? Sunlight? Late afternoon light? (controlled lab light?) Unlike people, fruit, landscapes and other traditional painting subjects, technical ideas and objects don't have an "appearance" in any normal sense of imagery. They're imagined and depicted as visual ideas that guide us through complex phenomena. For example what do like bonds in molecules really look like? Or the quantum not-quite-existence of high vacuum-spawned subatomic particles? The softly dancing dynamic structures in complex fluids? What about "things" that are too small and too delicate for even the best electron microscopes (TEM - SEMs are toys)? I've found that many images scientists create serve as visual similes to data and hypotheses, and as visual metaphors for complex and often highly abstract concepts. These metaphors and their stylized interpretation inspire and guide my "abstract" work.
