Time and Choices

More about Time and Choices

A surreal and detailed painting in a contemporary abstract style, depicting a man in a dark suit walking away from the viewer on a checkerboard patterned ground that alternates between black, white, and colorful squares, like a chessboard. The man is centered and appears to be walking from a brightly lit section towards a darker, smoky area, with his back to the viewer. On either side of the checkerboard, there are rows of chess pieces: black pieces on the left and white pieces on the right. The background is divided into vibrant, abstract sections of color, primarily red, yellow, green, and blue on the left, transitioning to darker, smokier hues of black and gray on the right. Throughout the painting, suspended clocks with Roman numerals are scattered, appearing to drip tear-like elements. Large, watchful eyes are also prominent in the background; a blue eye is visible on the left amidst the vibrant colors, and two brown/orange eyes are embedded in the darker, smoky background on the right. The overall effect is one of introspection, decision-making, and the passage of time, possibly within a complex game or journey. The artwork combines elements of abstract art, surrealism, and symbolism, with a painterly texture showcasing visible brushstrokes
