Overcome – Acrylics on Canvas
I’m going to flush out these three painting into a full-fledged series. As they’ve been on my wall for sometime now, I thought I’d hang ‘em up here as well.
These three represent my initial foray into working with acrylics of different viscosities. The backgrounds are chaotic, and the diagonal lines represent humanity’s habitual attempt to measure, define, and otherwise remove the mysteries of nature. The central forms are nature’s way of otherwise overcoming all of these attempts. A reminder that yeah, it’s nice to know where lighting comes from, but isn’t it more awe-inspiring when you don’t?

Pardon the photos, they’re a bit washed out from the wonderful weather we’ve been having in San Francisco as of late. I’ll upload better shots when I get them.
