    Well it’s alot of places – fascinated by factory facades, roadscapes and industrial lighting – you could say this place is Highpoint, Mt Waverley, the Monash Freeway inspired….

    flat sharp clean lines make me think of jeffery smart..

    This is fabulous…I love the lines, conscious and implied. AND, at the back of the photo there is something very “Edward Hopper-esque” about the wall and doorways. You’ve inspired me to upload a photo I took at the Ikea carpark, last winter :)

    The colour is really pleasing as are the lines. I enjoyed looking through your photos because they are not your ordinary run of the mill shots and hold one’s interest. Keep up the good work.

    LOL, I just worked it out and clicked on your tag “jeffrey_smart” to see all of these wonderful works. (Yes, I am a bit slow on the uptake sometimes) Excellent!

    Well spotted Paul, I love the desolated feeling – a scene devoid of life but shows some existence… so surreal and painterly… love the light and the composition… Nice work!

    Brilliant, Paul! Great shapes, with touches of colour to bring the whole image to life. Very interesting and visually stimulating composition.

  • Brett Foster

    Great creation Paul. The repetition of the doorways on the roof line and the street light gives this a really clean industrial look. If only the city were the way you see it – better place all round.

    Cardboard box land and its fabulous, scenic, evocative of the works of simplified art movement that came out of NY in the sixties. Fine piece of work.

    love the sense of isolation and emptyness…theres’s something sad and desolete about an empty road…it only lives to be used

  • Paul Vanzellafounder replied

    great insight dave – thank you so much! Yes, love the emptiness in this piece.. just crying out for human interaction!

    Nice diffuse lighting and warm textures. The curve of the highway against the square warehouse is very effective. Another beauty

    the emptiness is why Geoffery Smart placed his bewildering little fat man in his painting. Is this one in Melbourne?

  • Paul Vanzellafounder replied

    yes, all Melbourne… and yes – where is that fat man when you need him.. thanks for the cool comment!

    Love the lines …the curve of the road against the perpendicular nature of the buildings….can see the influence….nice image!!

  • Paul Vanzellafounder replied

    thanks so much Carmel, can’t get enough of austere landscapes and street scenes… they just speak to me!

    Some of these images are eery devoid of humans with a couple of trees in amongst all the concrete… like scenes from a sci fi movie!

  • Paul Vanzellafounder replied

    thanks mate – sometimes I love a world devoid of humans!

    Hey this is pretty cool. I like the way the freeway ramp rolls in and then swoops out of frame. Nice work.

    this image is so alive , there is nothing there but you can just feel a sense that it`s a little too quiet, love the different tones they are out of the normal bringing this to life… brilliant

  • Paul Vanzellafounder replied

    thank you so much 6point1 – so glad it brought out an emotion in you…

    I am representing the estate of Edward Hopper and ordering you to cease and desist channeling him. We are under strict orders from Mr. Hopper’s will to let him rest in peace and your seemingly deliberate attempts to take his essence even farther than he himself conceived is undoubtedly causing the turning noises that seem to be emanating from his grave.

    In the future we will appreciate it if you will stop showing people what Edward might have imagined the 21st century to feel like, and to simultaneously stop evoking his sense of meaningless order in a fading urban landscape. We have the rights to all of his work and they were enhanced by the limits of supply at his death.. until you came along and showed an astonishing talent to even make some of the originals less impressive.

    I could go on, but I keep getting distracted by the uncanny image above which Mr. Hopper surely would have done… unless of course you have in fact discovered a lost Hopper? If so please inform us.

  • Paul Vanzellafounder replied

    wow Ted – you give me such high praise that I blush… thank you so much… you spend so much time commenting – love that… your words are so appreciated!

    Love how always keep certain symbolic images within your landscape images, as with this the tree representative of Nature and in others it could an automobile or a human, just my perception today as I’ve been browsing your gallery. :-)

    Paul-Your art is fantastically surreal! Looking at many of your pics I wanted to comment on almost all of them-but thats boarderline stalking so I’ll keep it simple. This pic pops out at me because its contradictory in its nature-at first glance it looks simple and clean but the further you engage into the details I’m suckered punched into its wonderful shapes, patterns, & ballance-Inspiring!.

  • Paul Vanzellafounder replied 7 days ago

    wow thanks ron for the amazing praise…. love what you see… yes, I try and paint through my images my interpretation of the world I see or prefer to see… LOL, so wonderful to hear your words here…
    many thanks, paul

    Wonderful lines and tones. The subdued pastels of the doors lends the whole an enchanting melancholia.
