Artist's Comments

Phantom

Oil over graphite, painting itself 16” x 20” with the constructed surround and frame aprox. 24” x 28”


The surface is glass clear the isolated small areas are influenced by stained glass, as well as the segmentations of small area between the trees. The work is so much about the physical surface of the work which you can't translate on a monitor screen this is the reason I have shown so little of these works, it’s rather frustrating.

Starting on the surround which is a wood construction painted and manipulated to look like rusted steel.

Thanks for looking

Armin

Gorgeous, beautiful job. It's nice to see you do other types of artwork, besides portraits, which are amazing, but it is wonderful to see a change :)

Very gorgeous work. I'm still curious about the phantom oil stuff though. I"m also curious of how much time you took on it. Looks like as it took over 400 hours.

You can teach anyone to draw what they see with their eyes. It's all together different to teach someone to draw what they see with their mind's eye!

Oh. Before you said this, I googled phantom oil and said to myself, well what the? I knew you used the oil pastel since it looks like oil pastel texture to me.
