Insomnia by C.S. Savage

Insomnia

www.seventyonethirteen.com

This is an unfinished collage painting that I started about 6 months ago and never finished... One of these days I'll get some time to finish it but for now this is how it stands... it is 24" x 24" x 2" gallery wrapped stretched canvas painted with latex acrylic paint and the collage pieces are pasted with a gloss finish varnish.

Call it finished. I can relate to the title, and chaotic content as well. This represents every creative persons life in one way or another. Excellent. Best wishes, Carl

It just needs a few tweeks and it'll be done, I feel that there is just something missing, but I haven't come across it yet...

I am still learning that sometimes finished is unfinished in our minds. Love the imagery.

Thanx so much!

very dynamic in its composition and vibrant colors... i love the diagonal movement and the accentuated black squares with all the crazy swirls and collage elements that seem to evoke the notion of distorted or modified perception of the insomniac....and the narrative verbal stream merges with that diagonal movement very harmoniously.... love it!

I like the work in progress, My suggestion is to mix it up with some larger collaged areas to add size variety. I was drawn in by the excellent use of color in the painted ground itself, very edgy and modern with the balanced red rimmed shapes. Your artist's statement offers one of the most adroit notions of abstract art that I have ever read.

Thanx for the suggestions... I'm really glad you like my statement, I feel very passionately about abstract art - I feel that sometimes it doesn't quite get the credit or recognition it should.

Great mixedmedia work... i love the colour pallete and it looks finishe to me too.

5 months

Ya, I think if I keep messing with it I may end up ruining it... I might just leave it alone at this point! Thanx!

5 months

Its great... I'm not sure what else I'd do with it...but you are the artist and will know. Excellent. Love it.

Artist Statement
for C.S. Savage

Abstract art is seeing things that normally can not be seen. In other words, it is what feelings, emotions, thoughts, and actions would look like if they were material objects. Abstract art is music for your eyes, it is food for your brain.
