→ Out of Focus Paintings

in #link6 years ago

Philip Barlow paints abstract images that look as if they come from an out of focus camera.

In the foreground, the paintings feature overlapping orbs of white, red, and blue light, which obscure blurred buildings, cars, and signs that occupy the dimly painted background.

These are really cool. They remind me of a photo project I did once of nothing but out of focus night shots. I should look through my external drives and find that project to repost here one of these days.

Anyway, some of his paintings:
