Thinking about the limited range of my efforts, we decided that some "spinoffs" as supporting cast to a larger painting would serve to catapult its brethren by collective association. Artist Christopher Still is meticulous in his pre-project studies and I've seen a great niche market he has created by showing and selling these alongside his "master" painting.
Already late into the process, in the short term I simply needed to create smaller, accessible paintings. The buyer of anything large I might sell is already a one-in-one-thousand or greater odd. Smaller paintings are for smaller walls. Let's get real.
So, in a contrived reverse mode, I created alternative spinoff components of a "master." Hung together as a grouping, I feel amplifies the works such that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. That's Aristotle, by the way. I think he was Jackie O's rich husband or something.
Here's some iPhone shots of the 8x8-inch spinoffs...
Still figgerin'. Hope to see you there!
