The Ant Hill
acrylic on canvas, 40” x 30”, 2011-2023
This painting revisits a subject I tried in high school, to create a picture where it’s unclear whether we’re seeing a giant ant or just a close up view of one. With this attempt I added an exploration of fractals - patterns that appear the same no matter how much you zoom in or out.
After a over a decade, I put this back on the easel and added some new details.
This can be shipped domestically for $100.

Here is the version I created in high school (circa 1993):
This guy got a free painting from the curb in front of my parents’ house.
Here is the painting before the 2023 update.
