Meg Park

This week, I enjoyed looking through the art blog of Meg Park, which you can view here:

Why do I like this piece? Well, the subject is quite charming, but a little girl and a kitty on a stairwell could have been done 100 different ways and not had the striking appearance of this digital painting. Meg has used a strong, glowing, directional light source along with a limited pallet that contrasts nicely her focal points.  But above all, she created a beautiful rhythm repeating those red leaves and angular steps. The painting not only glows, but now it dances! I can almost hear the background music!
