This idea of seeing what we think we see instead of actually seeing these things as they truly are was something that was brought to my attention when I was quite young studying to be an artist. Take a look at my blog on this series. to learn more about Inversion.
Here I have shown many images that were the inspiration for the first painting, as well as the progression of the piece. See the video on how it all came together.
At the very end of this series of images above is the main inspiration for the 2nd painting in the Inversion series, and before that, some of the other images that I will be working from in some way for this 2nd piece.
