THE COLOR OF WATER

Original Pop-Surrealist Watercolor Design
Laurence dabbled in art decades ago during his youth. Raw two-dimensional designs and color drawings.
One might argue it was in an
abstract lyrical style, based on natural form, often using a
plant like free-cursive penmanship structure. This "botanical script" styling developed
initially from the act of hallucinating letter forms
as plant life while writing poetry, outlining then into abstract implications and landscape.
Since 2007 (now long since sober & clean) Laurence continues to
re-render evolved interpretations of these original drawings on a far larger scale, as well
as brand new paintings with a fresh perspective. In 2010-11, Laurence filmed a number of his paintings “in the
process” in time-lapse with an overhead aerial camcorder mount.
These short little 'Art Films' documented this cathartic process, later
edited with multiphonic sound design support by twin brother, Benjamin
Miller.
Laurence continues painting today (watercolor w/ some mixed media) and is quick to admit though highly inspired, is in fact an amateur with no formal training.

Can you imagine if a songwriter were to sign a recorded work?"...strawberry fields for – John Lennon – ever...
