The Catacombs


36"x48"
acrylic on canvas
2005

This painting came from a picture I took at a local show here in Butler, PA. I was at a venue called the Catacombs, which is run by a good friend of mine. In between sets I noticed the floor was super shiny and looked really neat with the silhouettes. So I snapped a few shots experimenting with exposure etc. The pictures didn't turn out so well, so I just saved them to a CD as usual and forgot about them. A couple years later I stumbled across them again and thought, one of these would would make a really interesting painting. Voila!

Here's the original photo.
