SDED-1, 06/28/2019.
Acrylic on canvas over plywood, 18 x 24 in (46 x 61 cm)
This is the next work of the series that, very ambitiously, is trying to take to the next level the artistic philosophy of two great Italian artists, Agostino Bonalumi and Lucio Fontana, whose approach to the flat surface makes a lot of sense thus when merged together, the Bonalumi's space can physically generate three dimensions just by using Fontana's solution to "open up space," in which case the flat art piece can escape the two dimensional trap. The logic behind this line of action is that in order to build a three dimensional space you need 2-D elements or the 3-D doesn't happen.
This particular piece is the very first of the series... where I applied the famous "KISS" (keep it simple, stupid) precept! [Working simultaneously on 20 works can change the time when they can truly be considered ready for showing!]
Although, in theory, I understand the difficulty of showing 3D work in pictures, I am certainly falling for the hundred year old trap of assuming that this showing of the 3D work is somewhat a true representation of the real thing!...

Painting

6 in. x 6 in., oil on cradled wood panel, ready to hang.
This painting went thru a few versions, and her face kept begging me to get loose and free, so that’s what i did. Layers, sgrafitto, abstraction, all around to create texture and interest.

This young lion is at the verge of challenging the alpha male of his pride for dominance. He knows that is his destiny. Yet the realization that only one of them will emerge gives him a momentary pause before he lunges.

While hiking at Crabtree Falls in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, I captured a photo of this section of the falls. It was a glorious day, and the falls were rushing due to the abundance of fall rain. I did the painting to remember that perfect fall day.
