You are all good, and yes this is my work, but it is heavily inspired by Yuyoi Kusawa's infinity net paintings which really intrigued me when i was first exposed to them. The repeating pattern felt like it was vibrating off the canvas and I wanted to capture that effect in color pallets i found more interesting, the base layer is made up of 5 different colors of blue painted in an impression of a blue sky with a little bit of whispy clouds which allow the blue to peak through, it was a beautiful, but i wanted to draw a sharp contrast to it by going accross the color wheel and mixing a mostly red orange using a cadmium red hue and light cadmium yellow. Then i used that mixture to draw a repeating brush strokes and rotating the canvas to break up the pattern aftet i had a few rows put down. The goal was to create a painting that feels like the colors are vibrating off the canvas and for the viewer's eyes to have no real point of focus allowing their eyes to dart around the painting viewing the sculptural like heaviy brush strokes. In short i was trying to create something i think is beautiful to hang on my wall. I never understood abstract expressionism untill i was heavily exposed to it after multiple museum trips and learning alot about what went into the art.

There are emissions in the production of fireworks as well. Drones can be recycled at the end of their life cycle, fireworks cannot be recycled. EVs ARE zero emission just like drones, they offset the emissions put out during their production after around 40k miles and are extremely energy efficient unlike combustible engines. An EV running on a coal fired electric grid puts off less emissions than a prius.

You are aware that pollution could easily lead to a futute where humans are not able to exist on this planet right?

 

300 million lbs of fireworks and 2.7 billion dollars gone in a cloud of smoke.
