Gallery Art - Cubism and Impressionism |
|
My approach to cubism is to use strong dark outlines to frame the subject to make form and balance very direct, and to use variations of light, and color, to pull the viewer's attention in and out of the composition. The uses of warm and cool color transitions, also help to achieve this affect. Pictured here is one of my cubist works from 2006 entitled "Tea Time". Sold at Bethlehem Musikfest, August, 2006. |

Recycled paper is made mainly from pre-consumer waste, which is trimmed during the paper manufacturing process. The greenest choice is post-consumer recycled. The fibers in recycled pulp are very short and heavily processed, so manufacturers often use a combination of recycled and new pulp to make the paper stronger. Hemp is a good alternative fiber, being a less environmentally demanding crop than cotton or timber. See below for a list of Hemp and Post-consumer recycled drawing paper. |
