This image is part of a series taken on visits to the Getty Center in Los Angeles, California over an eight year period.
I usually find this type of modern architecture sterile, but here the architect Richard Meier created spaces that are not only pleasant to be in but include interesting lines, windows, angles, curves, and textures in almost every view. Looking abstractly at these details reveals patterns that capture my eye as a photographer, and as many visual artists know, once you notice something like this, it's hard to let go of it. I continue to visit the Getty and add to this collection.
Here's the entire set so far: Getty Center Abstractions
Acrylic on wooden board. I used circles to create a closeup of a back, which allows a more transparent blending of colour than the dense wall pointillism creates when using dots. Each of the many circles was done with a brush, by hand.
Apologies for the bad showcasing it is too big to scan and too heavy to hang.

Images from Dundee Contemporary Arts (DCA) all shot from the stepped staircase area on ground level using a 90 mm lens at f2.0.
I shot a similar series earlier in the year, but foolishly deleted the files from my PC.
