Red tail-lights, oil on canvas 60 x 76 cm

This is from a landscape project in 2nd year BFA. I stopped at the stage of the underpainting because the tail-lights which appear red were painted in  black and the effect seemed too strong to be due to simultaneous contrast alone. Subsequently I have realised that the colours as measured in the Munsell system were low chroma 5BP, 5G and 5Y which perhaps enhanced the induction of the 5R in the tail lights.

“Let Us Consider” oil on canvas 2009

This was an assignment in a 2nd year BFA painting elective which involved using technology to mediate an image, in this case by painting 3 super-imposed images : a photo I took of a Hokkaido mountain side, a still from the movie “Lost in Translation” and some text by the Buddhist nun/ poet Rengetsu “Let us consider our aging and our future happiness as twin needles from an auspicious pine”.
