Radio Transmitter

This is a painting I did on a found chess board. It depicts one of my radio transmitters that I use to sail my model boats. It is an object that I spend much of my time holding in my hands, and I feel the memory of holding it it my hands vividly, just from looking at it.  This is the first of the series of recent still-lifes of objects from my life, and its been rather a turning point in my Art. I've discovered that just looking at things in the world as they really are, you see unexpected things.
