1999 - Acrylics and Correction Fluid on Canvas

Here is another early acrylic piece of mine. It's very layered, and took quite a while to finish, but it was a lot of fun and looks good. This is something that evolved more than anything; I never had the finished piece in mind, but gradually, through the layers, I found something that looked right. So, if you're one of those who believes all art is somehow preordained, now you know better.

The b-side to Rainforest mainly entails name tags arranged in a nice pattern. If you're noticing the same thing on a lot of back-sides, you'd be right; I really embraced the idea of the b-side around the year 2000, and in between creating Watercanvas paintings, I went back to my older work and created b-sides for those, too.

This time, I couldn't think of too much to write about, so I just listed my favorite Dreamcast games at the time. This is similar to the b-side to Easter 1999, where I listed my favorite Atari 2600 games. Man, wasn't I reading any books back then?
