Original artwork description:

I love painting people in museum looking at iconic artworks. I often create small paintings like Central Point in preparation for a finished piece or just as visual notes.
I use my small studies to understand the problems involved in rendering subjects
and to plan the elements to be used in finished works, such as light, color, form, perspective and composition.

On this study you see a woman enjoying a painting by Victor Vasarely. He was a French-Hungarian artist credited as the father of the Op Art movement, short for Optical Art. Utilizing geometric shapes and colorful graphics, the artist created compelling illusions of spatial depth, as seen in this work my figure is enjoying in a museum.

Materials used:

Acrylic on masonite
