Not to set the ghost of Claude Monet after me, but Iāve always thought of Impressionism painting as lazy. Itās like you want me to do all the work trying to figure out that this is Donkey Kong.
But I have to admit that thereās a moment of āAh-ha!ā when you finally figure out an Impressionist painting and I definitely felt it when I spotted the pink smudge that is Pauline. It was kind of like seeing the sailboat in the Sunday paperās Lazy Eye drawings.
Artist Brock Davis has a few other works of Arcade Impressionism up on his Flickr page, so be sure to check āem out. He says thereās more to come ā dare I hope for a Zelda?
Thanks for the tip, deanbmmv!
ETA: The tipster has informed me that itās actually not Impressionism, itās Abstract ā thus proving that I just donāt get art sometimes. Anyway, the lazy statement still stands as does my assertion that Davisā work is awesome.
