These paintings made me think of the idea that shapes are shapes whether they're abstract or not. That's just what they are.

IN FLUENT FORM 5

These remind me of drawings that Dadaists and Marcel Duchamp would create. You know, all that stuff that deals with ideas of machinery and such because there is an apparent system to these works. They do not seem random or carefully chosen. Rather they seem to be a result of an act - the final conclusions of a system.
