William Betts pushes the boundaries of painting by using digital and industrial technology to create interesting paintings in a pointillist style using a computer robot to place coloured paint in dots on a canvas. This gives them a CCTV look, the inspiration for his
surveillance series. His
line series also uses digital technology innovatively to create abstract images using colour pixel samples from photographs and stretching them across the canvas. As Betts says "The resulting paintings capture and amplify the essence of the view by focusing on their organic rhythms and color relationships while removing other objective information."
