Flame and Soot
Painting with flame was an idea that I formed while still in school. My interests began moving away from the traditional mediums in favor of something a little more experimental. I still loved painting and drawing and I wanted to keep the depth and contrast I could achieve from oil or charcoal. Flame straddled the best of both worlds. The scorched paper is my pencil and the soot is my paint.
