“Yes, she said”

Posted on Posted in abstract art, art, binary code, communication, uncategorizedTagged , , , , , 2 Comments

“Yes, she said”, wood, ink, oil and varnish, 22″ x 70″ x 5 1/4″ Price $2200

This was my first large scale binary piece. I had a clear design from the start and had a ton of fun making it. The support has a convex curve, made with 1/4″ ply stretched over a ribbed substrate. The frame around it is walnut with an oil finish (top and bottom) and the sides are beech stained black with India ink. The title, “Yes, she said”, (which is what this piece  spells out in binary code) was selected for its brevity and open-ended meaning. A lot could be derived from it, but generally, a positive vibe.

Below is a link to a short film that my son made for a media program he was in that features the making of this artwork. I think he did a great job.

“colour conversation III, order/disorder” 13.5″ x 15.5″ x 2″ acrylic on wood (sold)

This piece was an exercise in process and design for me, as well as being really fun deciding on the colour makeup and mixing 25 distinctly different colours that (I think) go swimmingly well together. One of my favourites.

This piece is sold but if you are interested in inquiring about a commission, please contact me at scotthamiltonart@gmail.com. Thanks for visiting!

“colour conversation, blue influence” 38.5″ x 16.75″ (978mm x 425mm) acrylic and stain on wood. Price: $1200 + shipping

As a woodworker it always breaks my heart to throw away all of the beautiful scraps of wood that inevitably end up in the bin after a cabinetry project or piece of furniture. Wood is just freaking beautiful, and an amazing material to work with. Seemingly simple in construction, a lot of hours and creative choices went into this assemblage. Enjoy the slide show below to follow some of my thoughts and choices along the way.
