  1. I like this one a lot with those subtle colors.. is it a study for a larger piece? I can imagine this as a 6 ft square.

    • Thanks RKB. Not necessarily a study for something larger. Thinking about it now though.

  3. This is wonderful, Andy. Love the tension between movement and stasis. Very impressive.

    • Thanks for commenting Richard and for your observation. That is a lot of what appeals to me in it, as well as the tension between flat and depth perception.

  4. Love this – the colours, arrangement and tension between depth and surface it creates. Very clever.

    • Thank you. Those are things that interest me in it too. The cleverness is with the viewer, I think: that we can see it in different ways is in our visual skill.

  5. Geometric in and out – a new direction for you I think – Architectural juggling?….

    • Thanks for commenting John, both here and on my previous post. Yes, new in some ways (the underlying structure is the same one I have been working with for a couple of years now – not necessarily so easy to spot here).
