The Game of You and Me
I spend the last 3 weeks working on two little panels which I can happily present you today. The paintings are about a mother and her son playing some kind of 'game' in Hyperspace.
As with most of my paintings I don't think about the 'theme' too much while I am painting. I like it strange and otherworldly and the best way to get there is to just follow the process of form and color. Within the process of painting there are always tiny riddles to solve. One after another they slowly carry me to the final result.
Sometimes my mind almost explodes by doing that...but hey, what is life without challenges? I hope you like it...;-)
Feels good to have them on the easel...finished!
The Process
The first layer of color...
...and the second one.
Drawing in the figures
Masking areas for the 'stripes' in the bodies
Slowly they are taking shape...
...now I am very close :-)
