Cool. love the hide-and-seek abstraction and the asymmetrical composition.
Douglas Fromm replied:
Thank you….I surprised myself by leaving the lower left unfinished, as my obsessive/compulsive nature almost always compels me to cover every square inch. An artist friend told me that “ what you leave out is just as important as what you put in “….this might be an example of those words of wisdom.

What an incredibly fascinating gallery! Goodness, I am absolutely mesmerized by your work! So creative everywhere, and this one, WOW! Just love staring at it and seeing and feeling so many different things. While wondering what YOU were thinking!! Seriously amazing!!
Douglas Fromm replied:
Thank you for such a wonderful compliment !…this work started out as something of a “science experiment “, just to see if I could transform an ugly poster that I bought at Walmart into something more interesting. I just kept experimenting with different paper scraps and 3 dimensional objects until it seemed to be time to stop. But it still didn’t have enough “magic” until I added red, blue, and green acrylic….

This is beautiful. It is sort of a brain, jellyfish, or alien (or other as yet not seen) depending what I am feeling or thinking at the moment. That kind of transcendence makes it great. Awesome work.

I know this is a relative of mine. I don't know how you get a perfect likeness. Actually I feel like you must be a relative of mine.

You do wonderfully wild work, Douglas! I love the composition of this one, and all the recognizable elements make it fun and keep me going around appreciating how you've put it together. L/F
