"Atom Hunter In Yellow" - ATOM HUNTER is an ongoing series
of paintings on the theme of subatomic particles. This is
the latest in the series and easily the largest so far at
108cm x 83cm x 7.5cm. It's pretty heavy too, all of which
means I can't really sell this via Etsy, as I think it'll either
need to be collected or I'm going to have to deliver it myself.
It's painted using a mix of acrylics, matt & gloss paints
on recycled wood, the edge of which I've cut into a
decorative shape to act as a frame. On the forehead of
the two tone yellow skull you can see the collision of
two atoms and the paths made by the scattered
subatomic particles, as you might see in a particle
accelerator. The edge of the skull is decorated in a
series of coloured triangles; four colours in all
representing the four fundamental forces of nature.
In the centre of the skull is a scorpion in resin (a second hand key ring ornament getting a new lease of life) representing life, at once able to live and adapt but yet fixed by the fundamental forces acting on nature. The skull, which is surrounded by atoms, has a plus and minus sign on its eye sockets, representing both the positive and negative electrical charges, and matter and anti-matter. £550.
