Red vs Blue Print

My work was inspired by the nature of duality that runs the universe. It is inescapable, it is a never ending game of red vs blue. Ying vs yang, and in total, this creates the balance that is required in order for the universe to operate. The artist statement is written on the canvas to ensure that the message is read and contemplated. I want to plant a seed in the viewers mind for the reality check that they live in a reality where there is always opposition to you. Before this painting, my paintings were not very good. It wasnt until my intermediate painting professor said my paintings were crap and embarrassed me in front of the class that I realized I needed to push myself further. I stayed overnight at school painting for a few days and I created this painting, and it had a lot of success and got me on the deans list of UCF. I chose to work with acrylic because it is quick to dry and therefore easy to correct and paint over. My illustrative drawing, has been inspired by my professors but also by artists like kim jung gi and karl kopinski
