Photograph - Original Photograph Further Creatively Interpreted And Digitally Painted
Description
Pieces in this series focus on scenes and objects in nature, which are specifically identified in the title - in this case, sea grape leaves. From that natural, original photographic element, arises the artist's additional interpretations through creative abstract digital exploration.
Here, I attended photographically to the interplay of forms created by the downed leaves and the perception of additional forms created by the veins of the leaves as well. The multitude of forms reminded me of those made by stained-glass artists in constructing their brilliantly colorful pieces. And my own digitally painted and enhanced montage of splashes of bright and connected cells of color is the result of that thinking process.
While abstract art doesn't specifically represent external reality, but exists somewhat independently of it and may seek to achieve its effect using shapes, forms, colors, and textures, it can, as in the case of this art piece, take specific realistic elements as springboards for creative excursions - emotionally and metaphorically.
