This wonderful painting


This image is easily described as a series of charectars assembeled in a room.

The horizontal image is separated into two large planes, one a taupe color, and one a rich chestnut. This gives the illusion of space both because of an implied horizon, and because the darker brown is on the bottom. This darker brown adds wieght. In the upper right hand corner of the image there is a smaller vertical rectangle. This smaller rectagle has definate depth. It appears to be a paneless window. Inside this window rectange are three shapes of different color; a red vertical squiggle, a black and white sun, and a feirce black triangle.

Inside of this room ractangle there is every shape one could ever imagine, from spheres to ladder shapes (ascending the entire left edge of the page as it tapers away) to fish fin shapes! Below the window rectangle on the right hand side of the image, there is a blue plane formation that seems to move back into the image.

The real star of this painting is a large white tube that slithers up the front and center of the image with a small stringed instrument shape being held directly above it by a bird headed creature. This white tube image is reflected elswhere in the piece.

This painting seems to focus on bold primary colors for its subjects with easy warm earth tones as a backdrop.


I really enjoy this image for its ability to convey so so so much emotion and also use a color scheme as simple as a summer wind. The subjects themselves can be a little disturbing at times. There are demonic illusions scattered mostly on the left hand side of the page. I automatically think that the artist could be a religous person. I also conclude that this artist must be a musician, and i appreciate that.
It is also interesting to me that most of the straight black lines in the image seem to begin in the upper left hand corner of the image and move toward the bottom right.
This image is a treat to look at.
