As the world turns

Dedicated to my friend Annemieke,
who's world turned for the better.

In the series "LIGHT" this is my 3rd one (part of a diptych):
"As the world turns"

Click on the arrow
for accompanying music
while you scroll over the this tactile abstract

Mixed media with lots of texture.
Part of a diptych (tweeluik)

Unfortunately the gold and copper tones are not that obvious in this photo.
The iridescent gold gives it a nice waxy shine.
I incorporated some sand in this abstract as a contrast to the semi gloss glow.

Some info about the colors I used:
In nature the blue-green turquoise lapis-lazuli forms when there is copper present.
Therefore this combination is so rich and gives these copper/gold tones an extra enhancement!
Result: a conjugation of complimentary colors.

During the day , when the light is changing, this piece will look totally different than at night with artificial light.(2nd picture)

Thom Roslan 25 Jul 2010

For some reason IT reminds me of an ancient wall carving from the Hopi Indian Nation called: "Koyaanisqatsi".....meaning "World Out of Balance" or "Life Out of Balance".....Excellent Texture & Design Olga.....as usual you've captured the "Inner Meaning of Life" in your latest works.

Artist Reply: Thank you for your wonderful insight... I'm always looking forward to your comments Thom! Love and Light, OLGA
