yo!
here we are in the artist's studio..
what a mess..
well it's a grey January day..
and the studio is cold and unused..
this canvas was started in 1984..
and was part of a series about Idealised Landscape..
with a quatrefoil in the centre of the star..
a promised land..
this image was his thing for a while..
this was the first one in 1985..
a nice dove of peace vibe happening here..
probably the artist's favourite..
Jackson would have approved..
military vibe here..
you may notice how the colours of the rectangles..
either side of the star are different from each other..
the idea was mood and balance..
a balance of power..
A BALANCE THAT WAS
so 70 years of Pax Americana..
gone like snow on the water..
next time on..
THE ARTIST IN RESIDENCE
painting over paradise..
the fool on the hill..
the future that was..
