LEAP FROG Yellow White Pink Abstract Placing Collage Painting Steven Tannenbaum

Description: Leap Frog (2022) Found objects on canvas 11.00w x 14.00h x 0.75 in ________________________________________________ Abstract Placing: Painting with objects to create flow, order, and balance out of seeming chaos - provoking a deeper appreciation of the beauty and truth in the objects around us. LEAP FROG: One of my Abstract Placings that doesn't seem like it should work, but does, very well. Somehow the muted color of the tiny bottle in the upper right is undefinable, yet sets the tone for the whole thing - it mellows the yellow. Then the bright texture and pattern of the metal sharpens the shine.Picture this on your wall - it will say something different every day, and is sure to provoke conversation with others (and yourself).- - -How my Abstract Placings are made: Out walking, I start with one thing I find on the ground that grabs my interest. Every thing that I pick up after is part of an unknown web linking each to the next - pattern, shape, texture - which I will discover when I fit them all together, on canvas.*CULTIVATED SERENDIPITY*I find objects; objects find me.I find pieces of stories: my story, your story - our story. Each object contains its own history, it's own spot in time. It wears this around its neck.This hidden history consists of layer upon layer of path and circumstance, built in like the rings of a tree. Moving histories, I create something new. One that fits the old bits in its mouth and chews slowly but surely.This new thing contains all that was, and some of what will be.It does not represent everything, but that very thing. ~~~SUBJECT MATTER: Not quite pink and not quite orange, Chinese, Shiny Gravel ________DETAILS FRAMED: NoSEALED: YesSIGNED: Yes, initials on front and full signature on back ________________________ Lots of art has an agenda, a planned place it’s taking you. If you wanted to be taken somewhere you've already been, why look at art?Art is about discovery, about feeling the moment where the artist leapt, and leaping with them. Come along for the journey. | THE ART OF EVERYTHING |T A O - E **Original Art for Original People** ______________________ To see more of the many pieces I offer, ranging in price from very affordable to a bit higher, click here, or search on eBay for Steven Tannenbaum______________________
