Howell's lighting history begining with dance is well know for his use of heavy color, accented by clear and L201 hues. He frequently uses smoke or haze to accent his use of focus. His designs are based upon Craig Miller and Tom Skelton's use cross focusing to make diamond effects. Howell's genius is furthering this idea into color.
