Well, Blunty Wunty is at it again. I had to experiment. Things are coming together more nicely in this piece. My subconscious mind is getting a better grasp on approximating and harmonizing mixed media, such as paper cutouts, watercolor, pro markers, pen & ink, and water & alcohol washes. This style that compels me to continue with it is leading me into interesting spaces and ideas. I’m still not satisfied of my own take on impossible shape-scapes.
I’m trying to convey the sense of multiple timelines or probabilities with the conflicting, angular, arrowheaded lines I weave my pictures with now. It’s like you’re in a dimension above this third dimension in which you can see autonomous little probabilities that you can chute down into if you want to. The setting is on a landscape in the spirit of 20th century surrealist settings.
I thought of the building as some kind of ore mining machine on another planet. It looked sort of Eastern in earth terms to me however. Like it could be an abstract depiction of a mosque. That round bulbous head, and all. The cutouts are from discarded printouts from my dad’s space game, gardening magazines, and printouts of my own previous artworks I’d posted years ago on social media.
