Mike Philbin – new paintings – dichotomy series update…
Friday, February 19, 2016 3:04
% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
…update about the paintings I've been doing of late. The non-figuratives. The colour tandems. The 'not thinking too hard'ys. I wasn't happy with them. And why should I be? I couldn't even work out which way up to present them. Were they upside down?
But, last night, it came to me in a flash, while I was stood there just 'looking at them' working out how to resolve this issue, thinking of my time in the games industry (matrix multiplies) and as a writer (reading from left to right) … and I suddenly realised, “I'd been painting landscapes, not portraits.”
If I display them in a Arabic Gallery, of course, I'll have to flip them right-to-left for them to make visual sense…
