Description
The Red Table originally was created as an experimental overlapping Apple iPad Pro drawing utilizing an Apple Pencil. It is a totally hand drawn & painted product developed in layers with the extensive digital painting tools available in Procreate.
As it developed it started reminding me of Henri Matisse’s famous painting I had always known as The Red Room. Therefore, I painted the positive shapes of the table & chairs in tints/shades of red & analogous oranges. The background complimentary colors, blue & green just seemed a given at that point so, they were painted onto the negative background layer in rounded shapes to contrast the predominate straight lines in the dining room furniture.
That’s the story of my painting. For those interested in the painting which inspired it I have provided the necessary information for research below.<
“The Dessert: Harmony in Red is a painting by French artist Henri Matisse, from 1908. It is considered by some critics to be Matisse's masterpiece.This Fauvist ...painting was commissioned as "Harmony in Blue," but Matisse was dissatisfied with the result, and so he painted it over with his preferred red.” (Wikipedia)
Otherwise known as The Red Room is an approximately 70.9”x86.6” oil painting on canvas now part of the permanent collection of the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg.
