A technique that utilizes circles as a method of applying paint or any medium that one uses. The circles bring out the subject or it can also camouflage the subject. It depends on the viewer's point of view. See www.circlism.com Painting in the method of Circlism which was first discovered by me in 1985. It was used in 1996 in sketches that I made and finally in 2000 was used with oils on masonite.

Circlism (sur'kliz'em) n. application of paint by diagramming an image in terms of tiny circles or figures to create an effect of subtle and complex dimensions. A school of painting exemplified by Stresino in the early 21st century United States. {Middle English cercle, from old French, from Latin circulus} circle- a plane curve everywhere equidistant from a given fixed point, the center. sur'klizt n. & adj. ---sur'kliz'tic adj. Compare pointillism.
For Examples see: http://www.circlism.com/
As we enter the world of '''Circlism''' we begin to understand the idea of creating or dividing images into bigger or smaller components. In other words, components are visualized in their most particular and integral state of being and then reintegrated into the composition seen as a whole. This is the enigma that each of us must discover.
'''Pathway''' is a pebble stone walkway that leads the viewer into three different paths. Circlism here is still in its infant stage.
'''Orchard''' is a combination of several techniques. Circlism is slowly emerging as a concept in itself. Lovers mark the tree, and find their own personal domain, as they possess it.
'''Galaxy''' is a complete Circlist painting. This piece reaches deep into the formation of the planets, stars, and consciousness. These planetary bodies come together in relation to our under- standing of the universe by committee or council. Order brings about chaos and visa-versa.
'''Japanese Garden''' takes Circlism to the next level. Shapes and figures can be utilized to project all kinds of different images. The garden connects by bridging concepts of both family and nature together as one.
'''King William Street''' is a mosaic of city life that brings together both the old and the new and perceives it in Circlist fashion. The Masters have set the way and directed us towards the road of fulfillment. It is now times for the Apprentices to take what they've learned and apply it.
Each painting has its own unique reality. The viewer may perceive something all together different. This is the nature of any work a million variations with a million unique responses. I hope you can see and appreciate each piece as a journey into millions of possibilities.
