Lone Viking Ships with Pillars. July 2023
This is a continuation from my piece “Lone Viking Ship.” I wanted to expand on the composition. I took the original scene and mirrored it with itself building out to the sides and below. The result is the center piece of what appears as two large triangles pointing towards each other. I love the symmetries that are created from this combining. Then to add more mystery and bring in a feeling of tribal ritual and totems; I brought in two pillars that I developed from another landscape and flanked them on either side. Note, there is a description of how the “Pillars and Lintels” are constructed in my description of the category of the same name. I then connected the central figure of the lone sails (two triangles) to the pillars by lightning bolts coming out from the sides of the triangles.
