My Piet Mondrian Impressions

       Piet Mondrian has been my mentor and guide through out my abstract painting career.   Even though I had difficulty mixing colors, I have always been drawn to bright primary colors!   Also I have difficulty satisfying myself when trying to draw objects, such as oranges, vases, flowers, or landscapes; however, with my engineering training, I can draw straight line objects like floor plans, wiring diagrams, etc.   So naturally, I applied those technique to painting hard-edge primary colored objects.

       I guess this is one of the Mondrian type paintings that I have done that has pleased me most. One of my co-workers, whom I consider a real artist, entered this painting in the Paris Art Fair. (Paris, Texas; not Paris, France)   It received an "Honorable Mention" ribbon.   You would have thought that I had won First Place and Best of Show!
 
 
       As an experiment, I painted a reverse of the above painting.   After I finidhed it, I never have liked it!   It is now stuffef up in my attic.

       I made this Mondrian type painting to use as a Windows 95 desktop background. I use it here at home, at work on my PC and at work on my UNIX workstation.
