I like a process, I like looking at the things I've finished. Sometimes my wife likes them as well, and that makes me happy.

I like making algorithmic art, stuff that little by little starts to come together through attrition and perseverance. I like to use basic colors and simple methods to create something that when viewed holistically is too complex to understand but is essentially created from repetition of a simple process.
Where do you find inspiration?I live in Kansas City and I generally find inspiration all around. Historical figures, landmarks and scenic places are plenty. Some of my pieces take several months to a year to complete, this provides ample time to create a list of upcoming projects.
What would you do with $25,000?Give it to my wife.
