Mark Rothko

An unknown adventure in an unknown space.

Strange though it may seem, some of my favorite work is that by Mark Rothko. I love the concept of his paintings, it's an art-scape or a field-scape, the viewer is supposed to view it close up and be within the painting. To me it is relaxing, it is your own canvas with whatever your imagination holds on it. Mark Rothko resisted explaining his work he felt that "word's would only paralize the viewer's imagination." In fact he even stopped giving his paintings conventional names instead he used colors or numbers. "Silence is so accurate" he said. Rothko's work encourages the viewer to use his creative imagination. More paintings & info about Mark Rothko: http://www.nga.gov/feature/rothko/rothkosplash.html
