Is this Painting Upside-Down | Query from the Artist, Jeffrey Lipsky | #abstractart #contemporaryart



Unknown by Jeffrey Lipsky (Facebook link)


He's another Indie artist so the Rockhouse loves him but he calls me Uncle Alan and, hey, that's highly cool.  Contact him in Facebook to suggest the orientation or for purchase of his work.


I wrote back to him about asking to publish it and told him at the same time I shouldn't worry about orientation too much since I believe Mondrian holds the record for one of his pieces standing upside-down in a major gallery for (I think) six months or more.

I did not answer on whether it should be this way or that way and I took the first one presented.  Perhaps you will disagree and he invites your idea(s) in Facebook.


For this one I'm seeing a fish painted by an aboriginal Australian while Mr Lipsky uses all the colors the aboriginal people may have dreamed of having.  There may be a second fish just under the first one but beyond that it gets highly interpretive and the passion of it is immediately impressive.  The painting practically explodes.

There are such dynamics in the piece it is practically explosive and yet it seems there is GIVE painted in small letters.  That takes us to all-out virtual to pull the pieces together and that one shall stand as a challenge to the interested art student of which I am not ... I just know what I like, passion and expressiveness.


Contact him in Facebook, Jeffrey Lipsky, to discover more about his work.


There's the love, mates, since the Regulars know I loathe using Facebook but I go there anyway since there's some cool stuff to find although Facebook did find a way to make things more of a pain in the ass since a reply to anything automatically converts to an invitation to chat ... wtf?  Why was that necessary.

Hopefully you see from this example, it's worth the hassle to see more of his work.
