Description
Acrylic on canvas over plywood, and 3.5 inch cube
24 x 24 x 2 in (61 x 61 x 5 cm)
Some paintings come easier to produce than others, but there are a few of them
that would just not look ready right away, so there is a slight delay appearing
before considered ripened for prime time. Going to achieve the intellectual (2.5)
dimension requires a series of steps that, if not taken, the entire process is botched
[it’s funny how getting to the illusory 2.5D requires both sculpture and painting
skills almost in the same time!]. At the end of the day, all it’s left to do is reach
down to the elements UCONN Professor Paul Zelanski tricked us to believe were
possible to forget, like color theory, rules of composition, or crazy creativity…
The colors used for the SDED-Five Cubes are the artist’s unique color DNA
“color particles” [ ;) ] the composition is what felt right for the painting’s visual
mood, and creativity sticks with the natural/initial thought of the artistic
eureka moment.
SDED Five Cubes uses the same necessary components for a believable 2D to 3D
transition: optical illusions, 3D (real) objects, relevant chromatic contrasts…
