Beacon of Inversion
By Christopher Thomas (me)
Acrylic on 16x20" Canvas
April 2021

This piece was done using a negative color palette, which means viewing the painting with a negative filter reveals the "true" colors. (pictured below)

This piece took me approximately 20 hours to complete, and was quite a challenge compared to my previous negative pieces.

The astronaut was especially challenging since I had to think of my highlights as my shading and vice versa.

Hope you enjoy and have a lovely Friday! :)
