A fascinating creation, John. I like the various textures as well as the layered shapes ... appears as if something has been shattered or broken. Very well done.
I was wondering what was in this work so charming and went a step back and look at this again. That's it! I saw the 'hidden' eye and everything was in place. Great work my friend.
To me, I see the one the clown cries for. : ) The beauty and the angst rolled into the mourning lover's memory. Captivating color tones and imagery.... Partially jagged, partially smooth like all of our bittersweet memories.
So as Cindy, I do not like clowns, but I do not see a clown here and your work is fantastic, John! Love the colors and lighting, so as the forms. Super!
