Pattern of Work
series develops from the cusp of representation and abstraction
My Series 3 - digital painting / art prints - Dan Beck 2005
Yep - that’s a sun - there is no mistaking it. Even though the sun doesn’t really look like that - we know that is a sun. In fact, it is a rather fun interpretation of one - the rays really extend here.
Is that land or water below? Who knows? This, like all the pieces in this series, sit on the cusp between representation and complete abstraction.
In all of these pieces, there is a smoothness to the color and a textured background. That quality really appealed to me when I first tried it - and therefore I continued those two aspects in the rest of the series.
The series seems to temporarily be on hold. I think that is because my success ratio was not quite up to par - but I still think there was something to it and I anticipate revving it up again.
