Modern abstract art is a language that speaks not in words but with color an emotion.  The emotion within this abstract oil painting is clear; it is a Modern Amusement! When we are amused we are enjoying life:  We experience pleasure, distraction and delight at what we see.  And without doubt that is true with regards to this lively and entertaining art work.  

While abstract and non objective this oil painting is highly representational. As Pablo Picasso stated “everything must come from somewhere” – meaning whether that ‘thing’ be emotional or physical everything we perceive as reality is effectively ‘abstract’.  For the modern artist all art is abstract. A distraction as well as an extraction from what we call reality. 

Through this oil painting we can escape into our own world of 'Modern Amusement'.  Liberated, from the deepest blues we roll into warm yellows to reveal brilliant touches of green.  Colorless lines and patches of white distract our attention.  This oil painting bares no reference to the natural world this is expression, emotion.  As well as highly decorative this is an incredibly active and emotional canvas art.  Boldly intense and colorful this art work is a candid response to the world:  This is what we call Modern Amusement.
