Fireplace and Girl Painting

fireplace and girl painting

I guess this was painted in the 1990’s
Yep it’s a girl combing her hair in front of a fireplace…..This Painting has been viewed a lot over the years on the net. It resides in a dear friend’s house. I poured Gesso onto water color paper and tore pieces of paper and pushed them into the Gesso and added more until there was a very rough surface. I like to paint on a rough surface..It adds texture.

This abstract painting was the largest and most complex of my icon images of  faces. They are inspired by early 20th century art somewhat but are also an invention of mine.

Abstract Art Paintings by David Michael Jackson

Yes these are abstract paintings. This gallery is composed of images with no names so you can make stuff out of the images own your own. Abstract paintings lend themselves to interpretation in different ways by different people. Abstract art or abstrart has it’s beginnings in the early 20th century
Wiki describes abstract art as follows:
Abstract art uses a visual language of form, color and line to create a composition which may exist with a degree of independence from visual references in the world.
We live in the world however! Abstract art can also suggest things from the world through our imagination. We may see a cat, others a dog so to speak. Any interactive form of art involves the imagination of the viewer. That is why i add shape to the equation.
Thank you for viewing these paintings.

Abstract Buffalo Painting

Yep he’a an abstract buffalo alright, sometimes called a Fubalo my my late wife Janet. She was great at naming things. She named our cat Backup, another one Mindy Clark, and our dog Schmutt.

So anyway it’s an abstract buffalo because she said it was and so it is.
To me it looks like a cross between a rodent and a bird but I don’t think anyone will ask for that.
Art is about surprises and sometimes modern art needs to show up in unexpected places like subway walls and buffalo’s that aren’t quite buffalo’s.

Abstract Mouse Painting

Sexy little mouse?
I usually am awarded this kind of keyword. A mouse is just what I made of it. Others see something else maybe. It was the purpose to let the viewer make his own decisions as to what it is. That doesn’t work out in this venue, the internet art gallery. My robot friends want to know where to put it. Someone will actually ask for an abstract mouse painting. I know these things because I’m already there for cat, turtle and a bunch of other abstract animals. At least my abstract cat painting is an abstract. Most of the others look like cats. LOL. There is another artist somewhere saying, “At least my abstract cat looks like a cat.” LOL again.

So this is my abstract mouse painting. I have to keep these two painting apart to protect the mouse.
