Pano-Sabotage in the service of Surrealism.
Out of the blue, so to speak, when completing this image, I saw two zoomorphic shapes and liked the rather oblique connection to Max Ernst's "Napoleon in the Wilderness" that seemed to surface for me - particularly the head that the artist gave the Emperor. So ........ Swan and Bull this became.
I never tire of looking at Ernst's work, which is for me a constant inspiration.

This evocative portrait reveals the deeply intertwined personal and artistic lives of members of the Surrealist circle and depicts the movement's fascination with dreamlike states.Gala Éluard was muse and lover to three members of the Surrealist movement:her two husbands Paul Éluard and Salvador Dali,and Ernst, who painted this work based on Man's Ray's photograph of Éluard's eyes. With curious forms rising from her unfurling forehead,Éluard becomes an imagined embodiment of Surrealism's wide-eyed interest in art's power to explore the mysterious territories of the unconscious mind.

Created for Peter Hipea of the "Shock of the New/ Award Tree / Max Fudge" association of Groups, for his birthday.
The 5th and final of a series of work based on mashing up or "re-mixing" Classical paintings together in Montages and Collages. This is rich and delightful ground which I'll return to again, but for now, it's time to move into other areas.
The painters whose images I worked with were, in order of use, Claude Lorrain, Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, Max Ernst and Leonardo da Vinci. Deep bows to each of them for their remarkable achievements in paint and vision. All of them are great inspirations.
The title is an oblique reference to a famous painting by Max Ernst, "Europe After the Rain", which I've always interpreted to mean, "Europe After WWII". A rather disturbing human figure with a hawk's head stands alone in a scene of utter destruction. With this take on the Ernst and the richness of the classic European forms that I used, I thought of a culturally and historically RICH Europe, resplendent with history, before the advent of the 'rain' of the two World Wars - the final days of the Enlightenment which came crashing down in Sarajevo. WWI shattered the Age of Reason sending shards, flying in every direction, issuing in the trauma that would become the new, 20th century.

Music Link: "Music for the Royal Fireworks" - Georg Friedrich Handel. What better music to capture Europe at the very zenith of it's ambition, hope and confidence, at least as far as the aristocracy and the intelligentsia were concerned, than the stately music of Handel. Written and performed for a King for an excess of show and a display of the divine right and vision of a Monarch. The West ( read: Europe ) revolved literally around these figures and their monumental ambitions.
Their hubris was titanic and in the end their prides and their nationalisms plunged their beloved Europe into two great bloody displays of human depravity never before even imagined. Nevertheless there is great beauty and inspiration in the works of Art, Music, Painting, Literature, Science and Philosophy that came out of greater Europe. As brutalizing as the two Wars were, wars that collapsed the whole great edifice nearly completely to the ground, there was greatness of the soul and spirit. There can never be another "Europe", not as such, but we have inherited its Arts. And for that, we should be happy.

An Homage to one of my very favourite artists, Surrealist, Max Ernst ( 1891-1976 ). Ernst's artistic achievements started in original Dada, moved into Surrealism, which in both fields he was a key and influential leader. Later he ventured into abstraction, collage, and sculpture with incredible results. Whatever this consummate artist turned his vision on resulted in unforgettable and highly accomplished imagery.
I wanted this homage to not only collage his work but to also have the look and feel of an "Ernst". Max Ernst himself was a highly accomplished collage artist and he also often worked in multiple planes, long before digital layering. Even my looping lines reference paintings of Ernst's such as, "Young Man Intrigued by the Flight of a Non-Euclidian Fly" ( 1942/47 ) and "The Bewildered Planet" ( 1942 ).
Ernst's work can be hauntingly beautiful, quietly disturbing, wonderfully innocent ( "33 Little Girls Chasing Butterflies", 1958 ) or deeply cerebral. His abstraction has never been recognized for it's high degree of accomplishment, placing him, in my opinion, as equal to any of the great European Abstractionists, the American Abstract Expressionists and the Post "Ab-Ex" painters of the 60's and 70's.

Ernst strongly believed that making art was an entirely new venture with each new piece. He felt that an artist that knows what they want exactly and stays strictly to that idea, is not an artist. An artist must be prepared to accept and incorporate what comes out of the process of making each piece, the surprises and the accidents. In that Max Ernst was true to the Surrealist spirit of the time that sought to give complete allowance for the expression of the sub-conscious. That made him a both an accomplished painter but also a great improvisor. His aesthetic can be summed up in his statement:
"Blind Swimmer, I have made myself see. I have seen. And I was surprised and enamoured of what I saw" - Max Ernst.

This intriguing surrealist work from 2008, in solid colors, shows us a man sitting in a humble position as if asking for something. In a large space, bottles float everywhere as if offering something. Strongly influenced by René Magritte, this is a work full of metaphors that awakens our imagination and makes us create different stories.

After completing this one of my favourite Max Ernst paintings, "33 Little Girls Chasing Butterflies", came to mind and I thought of offering a slightly indirect homage.

This surreal digital artwork is a captivating and thought-provoking piece that masterfully blends elements of reality and imagination. The central figure, a person in a red coat and top hat, opens the coat to reveal an interior space that defies conventional logic. Inside the coat, there is a room with a wooden door, an arched window, and a hanging noose, creating a stark contrast between the exterior and interior worlds. The presence of smaller figures within the coat adds a layer of complexity and intrigue, inviting viewers to ponder the deeper meaning behind the scene. The use of vibrant colors and meticulous details enhances the surreal atmosphere, making this artwork a compelling exploration of the boundaries between the seen and unseen, the real and the imagined.

elephant celebes is the work of MAX ERNST that is extraordinary
a collaboration with fernandoprats, who provided photograph of the squashed newspapers... it is also yet another homage to Max Ernst, his creativity and the wicked sense of humour.

Digital Surreal Art

In this striking piece of digital surrealism, a melting candle stands as a powerful symbol of time’s ephemerality, surrounded by a dreamlike park dotted with benches and figures from different eras. These silent walkers, dressed in historic attire, suggest a coexistence of timelines and evoke the quiet procession of history. The candle, dissolving at the center, evokes memory, identity, and the fragility of progress. Benches offer contemplative pauses, turning the park into a symbolic stage for reflection. Blending classic surrealist vision with digital clarity, the work invites viewers to witness the fleeting flame of existence that links past, present, and future.
