This painting is really deep. Note the contrast in the rich color of blue against the more paler green.
The green line represents a path; the only path, one must take in life towards achieving prosperity & serenity. Its narrowness shows the difficulty of taking such a path, but its relatively straightness shows it to be a true one.
Green as a color represents, nature, fertility, growth, youth... all the attributes of life. A peaceful color, it is the equilibrium between the emotions of the heart and the head. Too much and it could lead to materialism, possessiveness and envy; hence the more paler shade used by the artist.
The mass of blue on either side could represent a sea of emotions, like when Moses split the red sea to create a path of freedom for his people, this blue sea could represent a potential sense of danger on either side of the path; it's a cold color and the vibrant shade used shows just how cold, in almost a depressive manner.
But more often is the case, a sense of security and calmness resonates with blue as opposed to danger, as does spirituality and a quest for wisdom, so this could in fact represent the skies, the heavens, in which case this is a more soothing blue of inspiration with almost a divine quality attached to it. As a manifestation of the heavens and higher intelligence, it showers a regal authority towards taking that path in between; the green path represents a lifeline, to which once that ceases to exist, its entity falls either side into the blue and consequently into a different plain of existence, and more importantly, a higher state of consciousness.
The complexity of the blue space on the canvas is thought-provoking, and perhaps the fact that it can be contradictory in its interpretation, only further emphasises the balance the green path represents, and hence it becomes both a mortality and morality path one must embark on.Nah I'm just bullshitting, this ? just got his 5 year old daughter to draw something on MS Paint and called a few of his renowned "art chums" to gass the ? up, so that they could all get a cut in this art hustle -
I don't get the hate. Looking at this painting while listening to some ambient music, has made me realize the different kinds of beauty that exists in the world. It gives me hope, that people are still pushing boundaries, stepping outside the box, not following the crowd. Paintings like this come once in a lifetime and we should all be thankful to be able to live in the lifetime this painting was created.

I did that ? in second grade, cuh...Like litrally that...

Looks no worse than "The Persistence of Memory".

Oh no doubt. Art is big business but I'm not a fan of these type of pieces. Abstract and some graff is more of my taste. I just find it funny how some folks will go crazy of blood splatter patterns on a canvas. They be like "Oh my goodness. Thee emotion! I can just feel it! Bravo! I must have it. Heres a million dollars." -

A painting with such a simple explanation is far from being quality abstraction.ParallelRhymes wrote: »I just made a piece of my own in MS Paint it's called "Oh you thought you knew what you was doin, huh?"
It's a story of a person set out on a goal. Slowly travelling down what they think is the path to get there and then having to veer off at the very end of what seemed like a straight shot. The black dots represent outliers along the way...the first of which was unsuccessful (at the top) the second of which (at the bottom) caused the person to get off their path.
Behold, the true pinnacle of nonobjective artwork:
Mark Rothko – “No. 13 (White, Red on Yellow)” – Oil and Acrylic on canvas -1958. “It was with the utmost reluctance that I found the figure could not serve my purposes. But a time came when none of us could use the figure without mutilating it.” “The progression of a painter’s work as it travels in time from point to point, will be toward clarity – toward the elimination of all obstacles between the painter and the idea – and the idea and the observer. To achieve this clarity is inevitably to be understood.” “Since my pictures are large, colorful and unframed, and since museum walls are usually immense and formidable, there is the danger that the pictures relate themselves as decorative areas to the walls. This would be a distortion of their meaning, since the pictures are intimate and intense, and are the opposite of what is decorative.” “I’m not an abstractionist. I’m not interested in the relationship of color or form or anything else. I’m interested only in expressing basic human emotions: tragedy, ecstasy, doom, and so on.”
