More colour.

More colour. I have a tendency to talk more about the "what" over the "why" with my painting. It's not without critical content. Like why acrylics over oils? One reason is they are an inherently post-war, industrial, material-science creation. They embody mid-century optimism that things could be done better and in a more egalitarian way. They are the paints anyone can access in the post war utopian world H. G. Wells imagined in "The Shape of Things to Come" and Gene Roddenberry imagined in the original "Star Trek". They're from an imagined future that doesn't suck. #acrylic #acrylicpainting #painting
