Lucian means bringer of light.

Just finished the first painting of Lu. This time I angled the frame slightly to assist the screen in it's optical illusionary abilities...




... these screen paintings are difficult to photograph, but you get the idea.

Anyways, it is hanging along with another screen portrait in the Lovejoy Bakery (http://www.lovejoybakers.com) in the Pearl District if you'd like to see it (thanks Marc and Tracy).

Also, it could be considered borderline souless, but I am finishing a screen painting of the VISO logo, which I will promptly send to them in hopes of free product--- or possibly an offer to be their spokesperson.

As sellout as that is, it has prompted me to begin a series of screen paintings consisting of logos and fonts......the screen's optical 3D effect seems to be a good match with flat plains and colors.


A fringe benefit of painting this way (just in case you thought I was aging "Benjamin Buttons" style when viewing the previous picture), is that it really is a paint by numbers game, which makes it easy for my kids to paint along with me.
