The Alamo ... The Mandala of Texas II

 Sample cards using photographs of The Alamo as mandalas:






























A mandala is a geometric configuration of symbols. It may be employed to focus attention as a "spiritual" guidance tool, for establishing a "sacred space". I certainly consider The Alamo a "sacred space" as it relates to Texas Independence ... a "spiritual journey", starting from outside to the inner core, through layers.

Tom R. Chambers began to look at the pixel within the context of Suprematist and Geometric Abstractionist art.  The pixels or "Pixelscapes" - as he calls them - conform with many non-objective artists' paintings. This body of work is derived from pixel configurations.  They are magnified, filtered and precisely isolated to provide geometric abstractions within color-field settings.  These pixel configurations are brought out large-scale. This method not only conjures up Suprematism, Geometric Abstraction, Minimalism and Color-field for consideration, but also calls forth emotions, feelings, and responses in the viewer. https://digsup.my.canva.site/ https://digsup.my.canva.site/dsgawfmamsu https://chambersarts.godaddysites.com/ Chambers has used templates/place holders (screen captures) courtesy of and permission from VIDA Studio to transform his "Pixelscapes" into handbag art. A few examples follow:
