Description

Nobody is -ever- 100% of anything. Who's never felt "ready to party!" but also to rest… with tones of impending doom, plus a sudden creative impulse, all to the beat of having a crush? Potato - Kartoffeln. There has to be a name for this amalgam of distinct, often contradictory feelings and emotions that never stop to change, that disappear and reappear, to mix in the most unexpected ways. How can a jolt of energy become one of melancholy in a snap, unless some bits of sadness were already there? A feel of balance in life spiked with horniness and dashes of fear of dying, all at the same time sounds weird but also common. This collection is the result of me exploring this concept, theory, questioning, through an algorithm of colors, shapes, textures and apparent motion. Marbling and Sticky are finishes focused on the materiality (of paint and feelings) while Modernist goes for the identifiable gradient style of the early XXth century. Widely used but specially prominent in the work of my favorite female artists of the time -Lampicka, Tarsila, O'Keefe. Strong women, strong palettes. : TEAMWORK : 5% of royalties to the minters, yay! : VARIATIONS : GROUPING: Packed, Spread, Split CANVAS: ranges of brightness used in the background FINISH: Marbling, Sticky, Modernist PALETTE: Hscott, Survey, Solar Colors-feelings equivalence: DOMINANT, LATENT AND TRACES: the respective colors feelings Press "s" to save as a 2800x2800px png image And, as always: remember to zoom
