Triptych 3
For anyone not familiar with my triptychs let me give you a bit of background.
I had no idea what a triptych was until I discovered Francis Bacon in highschool. I tried copying this one in art class...
A while back my friend Dara had a photo exhibit and I went and I really wanted one of the framed photographs she had on display. I offered her a trade and she went for it. In the back of my head I always sort of feel like I'm swindling someone when offering to trade one of my paintings for something.
She wanted a painting but she had no idea what she wanted a painting of.
I had her give me a list of words. Adjectives, nouns, verbs, anything. I came up with this.
Next triptych started when I ran into some highschool friends at the Fort Point open studios. Same deal. No idea what they wanted to I asked for a list. Here's what came of that...
The third and latest triptych came once again through a trade agreement with an artist in Washington named Counsel Langley. I hornswoggled her into a trade and she gave me a list and promised me this painting...
So here now is my third triptych which will soon be shipped out West to it's rightful owner...
Enjoy the weekend, everyone.
