One of my favorite artist’s is Piet Mondrian. Every since my childhood I have been attracted to his balance of color and geometric design. You see it everywhere today. Fashion especially. But, never would of guessed that I saw it one visit to Canada. Of course it was my own eye catching this. One of my favorite bridges is in Canada. It crosses over the Thousand Islands from the United States to Canada (or Canada to U.S.). Anyway, we took a cruise (which is a must) that tours the Thousand Islands region and I was able to get a new view. The lines from the cables and even the patterns from the bridge reminded me of Mondrian. So today, in my “I have to get started working so let’s procrastinate” mood, I decided to do a little artwork on it. Click here to see the original.
Photo Art: A Mondrian Kind of Day
VERY cool! Wow! Looks just awesome!
What do you think if I printed this out on a canvas or something?
I think it would look great! I’d say at least 16″ x 20″. Or bigger. As a work of art, I think you’ve really added a lot to the structure from the original photo/bridge.
If you do that you should hang it prominently in your house. π
cool effect!
Thanks Sheila!
I was amazed when I checked out the original. You really did do some artwork. How fun taking the basic design and playing with it.
This was lots of fun! Like chasing rabbits in a field Bongo.
Ah, yes, Mondrian! Great work, Jennifer! π
Thanks Katie!
[know what you mean about Mondrian!] Nice artwork, Jennifer! Mondrian very well perceived!
Glad to know another Mondrian fan!
Fantastic work! You have created a very striking piece.
Glad that this works! Thanks for the compliment.
Wow, this is very creative! I love the colors and all the lines. Beautiful π
Thanks! I love graphic design and like being able to combine mediums.
Very creative Jennifer especially after viewing the before!!!
Thanks! π
I’m happy to know I’m not the only one who gets creative with my photographs. π Very creative, Jennifer.
Thanks!
I love Mondrian, too. A fun art project for kids is to give them some black electrical tape and poster paints and let them try making their own Mondrian-style creations. They always seem to come out great.
Really great idea! Love it and will try at home!
To begin with, your photograph is good, but then, what you did by adding the colors truly makes this a piece of art. Well done.
Thanks Mona. π
Wow, this is really interesting. Nice use of colors. It’s a great piece of art. π
I love this !!
Awesome! Thanks!
