Abstracts

[Daru3200]

Abstract art is what I started with, ten years ago. It made up for my lack of ability to draw realism. These are my latest. I just made a few sketches with colored pencils. You'll find the rest of my work on my art blog

The second one almost looks like scars cut into flesh.

Now that you mention it....

 

[Trier]

Yeah, now I can't unsee the scars!

Speaking of scars, are you all familiar with the cut canvases of Lucio Fontana?? I’m sure St. Luke is.
Do we really need to care about the artistic path a guy like Lucio traveled in order to arrive at this peak of his career??
Oh well, that’s for another thread in another forum.

Yes. It is interesting to see the backs of his cut paintings and how he supported the edges of the gashes in the canvas.

I didn't know who he was. Just looked him up. Interesting.

Oh Arty, his crap sells for millions!...
One of these days Sotheby’s or Christie’s will sell his collection of Japanese knives for 10 million bucks.

His "crap" is funny. I thought maybe if he was the first to do it, maybe it was significant. But what do I know?

Just for your information, the real piece doesn't have that flesh tone background. It mis-scanned, if I may invent a word, but I liked it as it was, so I never rescanned It.

Good art is full or fortuitous mistakes.
