Color, Form & Meaning
2/2021 Charles Carver
The galleries below explore color and form relationships as they rapidly coalesce with a short period of latency into a stable image. In the Pop Goes The Culture subset the 'meaning' that each composition possesses for naive sense perception is vacuous by virtue of these relations, regardless of any ambiguity that is introduced by the participation of object forms and emergent figures into a seeming narrative. If you're using your smartphone to survey the site quickly, please remember that the work is designed for high quality printmaking and large format viewing. The animations are often core avenues for expression of the individual piece and not an afterthought. Check the work out on a larger monitor whenever possible.
Thanks for viewing!

Fine Art Color Galleries
Charles' productions include primary photo composite arrangements that are painted and/or sketched digitally, and then further refined with traditional embellishments after archival printmaking at a boutique print shop (pencil, pastel, paint, glaze, or collage applications). They are created for full size and large scale printmaking. The artist continues to refine his techniques via two basic thrusts: (1) investigation of the dynamic relationships that unfold in object-rich environments, including the immediate and active selection of form and meaning early (and often unaware) in the perceptual process, and (2) the development of digital painting and illustration techniques that retain the physicality of hand-crafted sketches and paintings by inviting additional work following professional printmaking.
note! the ARRANGEMENTS below DEPLOY COLOR AND OBJECT FORMS TO ENCACT SPACES CAPABLE OF EMERGING OTHER FORMS AND NARRATIVES; foR RPG Illustration & D&D SAMPLES select
