This painting is a representation of the modern age of man where technology is the making everybody complacent and apathetic. Slowly we are losing our grip on humility and demanding more and more resources. In the search for knowledge have we lost touch with the purpose of our existence and how to coincide with the natural world. As we move forward I wonder if this progression is going to be as beneficial as we are promised. we must remain hopeful and keep seeking the truth. I enjoyed making this painting on the wood surface because it gave a nice texture to the background and to the gold as well. I work with light washes of paint so that it allows the wood grain to stay visible. As I keep experimenting with new materials I am finding new ways to articulate myself. I am enjoying this journey and hope that along the way I inspire others to embrace innovation and remain passionate as we venture forth.
I know Sherwin Long personally, not exactly a long time but enough to analyze and feel out the type of person he is. He is a positive energy with an obvious talent, creative mind, and brilliant imagination. I'm excited to see his continued work and growth as an artist.

Deletethank you Sean. I appreciate your support.
DeleteThis is nasty! I immediately thought of the Phalanx from X-Men, but I like where you went with the concept of man becoming technology. I like the addition of the controller too!
