Remember cloud-watching as a child? Imagining shapes and figures in the sky? The scientific term for the psychological process behind this game is 'pareidolia'. My work explores this phenomenon and the edge where we make sense of the world. I hope my images help the viewer to rediscover wonder and curiosity at the unfamiliar and the mundane. This piece is an abstracted composition painting in oil. One of a series.
