A small part of a larger piece, started tonight. No, I don't paint with the intention of objects showing up. How and what I paint, it's all a reflection of how I see the world. Meaningless, aimless; direction-less outside of the effect of the forces that act upon the materials that exist, but no less beautiful for the chaos. What YOU see is a direct reflection of how YOU see the world. And that is the seemingly impossible to communicate point I've been trying to get across to y'all for literal years. Art is a mirror. . . . . --- Pigments, beeswax, damar resin, and epoxy resin on wood panel. //Screw your material rules. -- (Second photo, more or less same caption. Let's face it, most people don't have the time to read. A few good friends will. That's social media.) #art #painting #encaustic #abstract #details #artistsoninstagram #contemporaryartist #lifeofanartist #artinprogress #artcan #masterinthemaking #artlistr #contemporaryart
