Alextoons Art

Made this piece a few weeks back, it took about 5hrs, 1hr here 1hr there throughout the week. I really liked the final product in the frame. This was the 1st time i framed something, i usually just make things n store them away but this one was a special gift and so a frame was a must. My process is simple, I like to start with a black back drop, cut up some shapes from a variety of colors. I lay out different combinations and when I am please I begin to sew the shapes in layers.

Klee pt.1

Paul Klee is one of the most well known figures from the bauhaus period. His painting and teachings on art and form and color are very interesting till this day. He experiment with some really interesting shapes, colors and lines. Although I find a lot of his work fascinating I also find plenty of it weird. Non the less I do enjoy certain pieces and its always a treat to flip through pages and study his work.

Below are a few scanned images from the beautiful book by Will Grohmann title KLEE.

I do not own or claim any rights to any of the images from this book. I suggest buying it on amazon

( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0810912082/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i2 ) or requesting it from your local library.
