This was the life





His work varies in styles and color but here are a few images from the series Dreams of Flying. I love how imaginatively simple and playful this series is with the use of accessible props and locations. Really love the socks and bucket head Vader.

Looking at the info palette the first and third image are predominately yellow. The second image appears neutral but leans closer to cyan. He sticks with primary colors which brings out a youthful quality in the work.

His other works all vary in color depending on the project. Even within projects Jan mixes up the color palette. In his project Prayers, he plays with various neutrals and generally corrects to a colder finish.

  1. You should check out miles coolidge his work is similar in the way plays the 2-d against the 3-d but he pushes it in a very disorienting way. Try to find the furniture series it produces the strongest effects.
