Ever wanted something truly original nobody else has?

Details:
Picasso was eating in a cafe when a woman recognized him and asked him to sketch her a quick picture. Picasso said, “Sure!” and began sketching on a napkin. When he finished he handed it to the woman and said, “That’ll be $50,000.” The woman responded, “Why?! That took you 5 minutes!” and Picasso responded, “No, it took me 50 years.”

| Only 2% of people own an original oil painting. Sadly, statistics show that most of us never owned and never will own an original painting. Old paintings get more expensive as we speak and there is only a handful of commercial painters in the population today. However, my paintings are here if you like it. Call it abstract, call it impression call it autistic, call it whatever you want! It will always be original no matter what! My style is everything that people love the most in Abstract art and Impressionism with a Feng Shui feel. The new theory that the mind gets some or all of its ideas by abstracting them from ideas it already has, or from experience. You may, for example, abstract 'rain' from a set of experiences which involve rain. It also fits into Feng Shui principles, making the design more personal. How it is created?
Your brain deconstruct images in a very specyfic way. When looking at a painting from a distance your brain fills up the gaps. Your imagination works in a sub-level, painting like that I want to plug into your subconscious. It forces the brain to conjure up an extremely personal interpretation of it. If the painting had been painted like a detail photographic representation, the brain wouldn't have to fill in the gaps. By causing it, our experience becomes more visceral, with our brain applying memories and very deep emotions to the work. My personal belief is that is better to quickly capture the essence of the subject, rather than its details. I apply colours with as little mixing as possible, creating a vibrant surface, "the optical mixing" should occur in your eyes as a viewer with your personal interpretation. |
You could be looking at the painting hanging in your room for the next two years thinking about it in a specyfic way and then suddenly a handy-man comes in to fix your dishwasher and points out something that you perhaps missed or never considered to be that way. It happens to me all the time and I paint this god damn stuff. I just love it.
