Also, the full title is The Conversion of Saint Paul on the Way to Damascus.
Ah thank you for pointing that out. I've updated the the post title.
I don’t think I’d find make the time to read articles so personally I’d prefer just having the art here (and of course articles can be linked to from the post body - but would probably be overlooked).
It is settled then
That is brilliant.
Seriously, if you’ve run across this and are thinking “wtf is this abstract mess?”
Take a step back, follow the line, then step back again and ignore the line while looking at the shapes. Then step back again and look at the whole. There’s a depth to this that isn’t apparent on the surface.
It really does exactly what good abstract is supposed to.
I tried to do what you said but the sheer brightness of the line (especially where it gets thicker towards the top left) makes it harder for me to ignore it
i support numbering the art for referencing, but i'm also a big fan of artists choosing not to name their works because that'd leave the viewers with a greater freedom for interpretation. they'd have to be more abstract for this to make sense though.

oh damn i didn't know what i posted was a cropped version
Why is this here?
Oh shit you're right. This was not a painting as I first thought, it's a photograph.
gonna delete the post now.
the lovecraftian dog ate the rest of it's homework
I just like the patterns. I think they look cool. If there is a well hidden meaning behind it, that'd be even cooler
I was wondering the same thing
