Glass Block 12 Mona Lisa Smiles


Glass Block 12 Mona Lisa Smiles Digital Art from composited photographic images.

Glass Block. I wil try more with this visual metaphor again as I did before many years ago. I shall use it (the glassblock wall) as a metaphor for the veil. The veil that blinds us. The veil that decieves us. The veil that conceals the truth.

I will paint it all for you. I will paint for you beauty... I will paint for you the horrors of this world... I will paint for you all I see though my walls of glass. And we shall see if anyone shall take note or time enough to notice, "to see what lies beyond"... And in doing so, see the lie that reveals the truth.

"He who does not see more vividly and clearly than this perishing mortal eye can see, does not see creatively at all." William Blake

"Art is the lie that tells the truth." Pablo Picasso

"A true work of Art is a small fragment from the eternal stream of the Creative Spirit which springs forth into existence through the persistence and focused thought of the Artist." "Art is the lie that unveils the truth, revealing it, makeing it more clear, and gives truth it's substance. Robert James Kelly
