Description

Faces In The Doorway is the latest piece from PaintingsByDarren. This abstract piece utilizes acrylic paints and inks combined with gold and copper leaf with patina, gold and copper foil applied with tar gel medium, pastels, along with gold and copper heavy body paints. If you look closely you can make out "faces" in the "doorway" towards the top left of the piece. These abstract yet recognizable faces were achieved when the patina medium was applied to the gold and copper leaf. Also apparent are the abstract images of birch trees mingled in with these faces. The strikingly bold and vibrant gold and copper foils and leaf lends a sense of shimmer to the otherwise earthly tones of this creation. This piece was completed as an "introduction" piece for an online art class I am currently in and is in keeping with the abstract, surreal, and dadaistic style from artwork in the early 1900's. This art movement was led by artists such as Henri Rousseau, Marc Chagall, Salvador Dali, Georgio de Chirico, Max Ernst among others. A lot of the artwork of the time was inspired as a result of World War I and the artistic views at the time. several pieces will be coming in the next 6 weeks so please stop by to see the progression as I embark on this journey through some of the most influential painters and artists of this century. This piece would be an awesome gift for the true art enthusiaist and is a GREAT conversational piece.
