Exploratory work is done digitally before committing to the piece and its direction – whether that affects color, texture, light, opacity, etc.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-reader-unique-id=\"9\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-reader-unique-id=\"10\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHe recently began showing the work.
