acrylic on wood panel pieces by graham parks. seems as though you are viewing a scene through snow-covered glass, doesn't it? parks achieves this technique by first photographing meaningful images, cropping and editing those photos to their most basic elements, and then meticulously tap(ing) off polarized sections from one another, crisply separating textured and matte from smooth and glossy surfaces in alternately vibrant colors or muted and monochromatic palettes. just beautiful!
