Original Tom Lohre Oil Pastel on Aluminum Painting

Item Details

An original oil pastel painting by art innovator Tom Lohre. This painting entitled ‘Fountain Square XL,’ was created by melting oil pastels onto the aluminum surface, the execution of the painting is guided by a pixelated image of Fountain Square. The method used in creating this painting, which is a reinterpretation of an earlier work, is very similar to that which is carried out by the painting machine invented by Lohre using Lego’s Mindstorm Invention System in 2003. This method of painting claims to make the most of the least. Lohre claims to be the first to have ever painted a spaceship from life, he also painted the eruption of Mt. Saint Helens from life. The painting is presented in a wooden frame with worn grey paint, and a canvas border terminating in a wooden bevel to edge.

Condition

Some very minor wear to frame.
