This and the following 6 images were all derived from/inspired by photographs I took of an orange and two tomatoes! Miracles of modern technology - the images, not the fruit :) Although, having said that ......... !

This is a "found object", and it might be fun to see if anyone can come close to figuring it out. No one will get it exactly right. The only changes were in Levels, to make the colors pop, and cropping left and right sides.

Los Angeles, California. Every time I get to the Getty I'm astounded by the architecture. The architect Richard Meier put incredible lines, windows, angles, curves, and textures in almost every view. You look up, down, across and through in almost any place you can get to and there are things of interest to see.

 

Looking at the details of this architecture abstractly reminds me of the work of Kandinsky and other Bauhaus painters and architects as well as the Russian Supremists and I wanted to make a small collection to attempt to document that.

She key word for this card is "abstractions" which fits with the abstract main sketch, and the work of philosophers in the small sketch.

 

The main sketch is an abstract done more or less at random but a more complex one.

 

The small sketch at the side is a copy of one by Hans Holbein in Erasmus' book, the Praise of Folly.

abstractions

Erasmus' "Praise of Folly" loves to mock

The scientists whose pride he wants to knock.

From landscape, portrait , third way showed the feel

Of life - or shapes 'n colours to appeal.

A simple plan - or of it, make a meal?

Abstractions can be painted into art.

Kandinsky's new field sells well in the mart.

It's a vagina, I get it.

 

Now get your abstraction out of my face!

This is my mystery object, cropped as suggested. It really wasn't fair to make you guess, since there was no way you could figure this out. It was taken outside a kid's dance studio. These are trophies inside the building, as seen through glass bricks. It was originally cropped to a square to eliminate the frame around the square bricks.

Today's series are more of my abstracts. Being an abstract painter I am gradually learning more and more about abstraction in photography and enjoying it.
