SDED-4

SDED-4, 08/02/2019.
Acrylic on canvas, octagon, side 11 in [26.5 x 26.5 in (67.3 x 67.3 cm)] Another piece of my SDED / Porture series that drastically evolved since it was started in January of 2019.
The dynamic between the two to three dimensions is enhanced with trompe l'oeil sections in order to make the transition both easier and intriguing, worth spending time to look at it. The 3D is born out of the original flat surface of the canvas and is adorned with a fake third dimension. The octagon shape canvas was generous enough to accommodate circles and triangles bringing me back to when I learned that "Simplicity is complex. It's never simple to keep things simple. Simple solutions require the most advanced thinking." (Richie Norton)
