Working from the outside in, the outermost vibrant elements made up of dried acrylic paint serve as the more manipulated biennial, calling attention to Lester's control when doctoring flora. Lester's affinity for blind-contour parallels the theme of nature's unrelenting neutrality toward the feats of man. The artist notes, "There's something nice about not being able to tell what it's truly going to turn out in the end."Exhibitions
