Father and Daughter III:
Oil on Canvas.  9'x4'











All copyrights reserved by Trius Fernsler
the idea of light has been concretely in my head for some time.  In the case of the latter pastel, Light Bulb it serves as an actual light however in Viridian Pheonix it is like a tumor not a light and from the head grow thoughts can develop often in two ways.  In contemporary music this can often be appreciated as in Arc and Green by Takemitsu but like de Kooning, in painting, the medium with darkness shares its own light specifically but in a variety of ways.

the eventual completion of this picture led to a far brighter, more surreal set of colors.

Both these drawings were made on toned paper, gray mainly, highlighted with white, and touched up with color over a long period of time.  Both of them were destroyed in the fire.



Only the imaginary portrait exists.  The nude was destroyed in a fire.

First: Jung with pipe in mouth.

Second, I actually did smoke a pipe and that is why her eyes are so damn blue!

Both heads are slightly larger than life.  Think of a large football that only a giant would toss.

Sophistication of light is necessary for the proper manipulation of tone is the essence of every line running throughout what I call 'Light Drawings'.

A type of drawing I am making now.   This was the most successful of the first series.  None of the third or fourth series have been published yet.

this painting exists only in digital format.  I created it once but found myself disgusted by the horror of my past existence.

The painting was six feet by 28 inches or possibly 26.





















Full size giclee prints, signed by the artist are available.

These three paintings were made in partial conjunction to one another.

A vision into my future.  Painted live for an event, the central image is pasted directly on to the picture adn the additions were made to remember the way I had once dreamed of painting the same image but with out all the original surreal imagery.  And so there it was, dripping like coffee, onto my open back.
