...even in 2D you are bordering on genius - i for one am very glad to see a return to the pure abstract on your part... great work - i only wish i could experience it "live" in 3 dimensions (the 4th would follow i'm sure)...

...no thanks necessary - i'm always happy when an artist presents an original abstract (so much generic shit out there)...so i thank you for inspiration which is surely what art, in all its myriad forms is all about...x

yeah i like tapies i dont really mind to be inspired by others works.. but from time to time i was too inspired by tapies.. too much

mmm the base layer its oil mixed with marble sand (dunno really how to call it in english)

I really like him too (and burri) but HEY its good to study details...and you learn by doing it yourself - not just watching....

yeah i study it myself... its impossible not to get ideas when you see otherpople work but the point its to discover how they got to do that... i also like burri but ive seen less work.. cauz here in catalonia/spain.. tapies is the man (well for someone... others just hate him)

really awsome colors and stained look. There is harmony and chaos in this abstraction. I like it.

thanks a lot, it looks a bit less colorfull in real life, suppose is cauz of the picture, but there are also other things that cannot be shown in picture, like sand texture or the wooden box.
