Acrylic on 16x20" Canvas, April 2021

This piece was painted using a negative color palette so that when viewed with a negative filter the "real" colors are revealed. (pictured below)

I've had the concept in mind for awhile and finally decided to get it down on a canvas. I wanted to use a lot of deep reds and blues in the negative version.

The astronaut was a challenge because I still struggle with the human form, and the shading / highlights are so different in a negative piece.

Hope you all enjoy! Happy Friday :)
