Chance Encounter

Again, contrary to appearances, this photograph is an image of an entirely two-dimensional trompe l’oeil “cutout” birch panel painting. The title refers to a quote by an early Surrealist, Isidore Ducasse (a.k.a. Lautremont) who proclaimed something to be “Beautiful as the chance encounter of a sewing machine and an umbrella on a dissection table.” The original painting measures approximately 36×38 inches, and was created with both oils and acrylics on a “cutout” birch panel. Painted in 2005, the original painting is in the collection of the Anderson Museum of Contemporary Art in Roswell, NM.

    the objects extending out of the frame, as well as your use of shadow and the 3D effect really makes this unique and interesting. To quote my teenagers- You Rock!
