MANS LOVE STORY

Hello readers. For this post i chose 'Mans Love Story' by Clifford Possum. I dont really like this piece very much because of its randomness but it does have some interest which is why i chose it. I do respect the fact that this is a dot painting. It must of taking a lot of time and thought to complete this. The use of color just seems very odd. I think if he would have kept out the really dark brown and black out of the background and used some other color to keep a nice flow it would have been better, i just feel crowded and confused even though i know the story of this. The story that he translates is clever between the man, women, footprints and such. With his style and way of expressing emotion, it seems to have paved a path for other artists at that time and so on to try this style and mix similar styles.
