Abstract Composition No. 4, David Plotnick, Acryllic on Gesso, 11 x 10 in, 2010
This piece was inspired by one of the black and white drawings I made for my Surface class. It was a close up of my nose and my forehead, but I inverted the lights and darks and decided to use the natural palette of a mannequin in my room. I felt that something was off-putting about it, it lacked a stronger balance and was not that exciting. So splatter of opposite colors within opposing colors established the balance and added a thrill about it.
