Goodness.... How these artists painted so much fine line detail!
This painting took forever. I can't image doing this kind of work every day.
So many artists used only primary colors, almost like there were no others!
The wall painting is from two of Mondrain's paintings combined together.
The chairs, table, sneakers, bag, speakers, flooring and even the fireplace
setting are all products manufactured after Mondrain, even the little apple
on the arm of the chair. Seems he was, and still is a well loved artist.
I thought all of these elements would make a great primary colors painting,
thus the Title " Everything Primary - After Mondrain.
Enjoy!



Pieter Cornelis "Piet" Mondriaan, after 1912 Mondrian (Dutch  March 7, 1872 – February 1, 1944), was a Dutch painter.  . He evolved a nonrepresentational form which he termed Neo-Plasticism.  This consisted of white ground, upon which was painted a grid of vertical and horizontal black lines and the three primary colors.
Between his 1905 painting, The River Amstel, and his 1907 Amaryllis, Mondrian changed the spelling of his signature from Mondriaan to Mondrian.

Piet Mondrian was a Dutch painter and an important contributor to the De Still art movement, which was founded by Theo van Doesburg. Despite being well-known, often-parodied, and even trivialized, Mondrian's paintings exhibit a complexity that belie their apparent simplicity. The non-representational paintings for which he is best known, consisting of rectangular forms of red, yellow, blue, or black, separated by thick, black, rectilinear lines, are actually the result of a stylistic evolution that occurred over the course of nearly thirty years, and which continued beyond that point to the end of his life.
