Refracted rain

[Martin C]

This was inspired by the fractured view caused by raindrops streaming down a window pane. Each column is a single stream of drops. I haven't worked out why a stream of drops also causes a horizontal breakup of the view (perhaps a bunch of drops colliding on the way down, each with its own refraction?) but it does lead to a naturally-gridded abstraction which I couldn't resist. Acrylic, approx 30 x 20cm.

I can't resist it, either! Beautiful work!

This absolutely makes me think of raindrops streaming down a window. It's awesome, Martin! How nice that you were able to turn that kind of inspiration into an abstract painting!

That is absolutely gorgeous. I love the colours you used together.

Thank you so much Terri, Donna and Hermes!

However your ideas come, they make for beautiful paintings. This one is no exception. I love the greens and blues here. All very intelligently placed. Lovely piece for sure!

I like this a lot. Good work Martin.

Thanks Ayin and Alabama Jama!

How did I miss this? Very cool. Perhaps the horizontal pattern is like waves. Like on water they tend to be all of the same wavelength. The patterns that waves create are fascinating.

I like your abstract design sense. My eye is jumping all over and not getting bored. Well done.
