Times Square 2 - digital art - Dan Beck 2008
I felt good about my first take on Times Square - but wanted to try to tackle the feeling again - a little more focus on the TV nature of the advertisements - still the bright color and overwhelming show - but hoping for the shape of the over the top media bombardment that is part of the fabric of life in the big city.
My life is normally situated in a more bucolic west coast - rolling hills - and farmland setting - so this is a departure from what feeds my art generally. But what an incredible scene - the East Coast in general has such a great mix of old and new - quaint and over the top sensory bombardment - it feels like there are artistic touches everywhere.
In the Salinas Valley I am fed by nature and quick scenes which grab my attention - in the East - I was bombarded by lights - by life - by urban frenzy - and this for someone who lived back east (love that expression) for a major portion of my life.
