Eternal Flow Картина - Richard Gabe

Rich Gabe was born on outside New York City and later moved to Boston where he continued his passion for art. Formal training continued at Philadelphia College of Art, College of the Museum of Fine Art Boston and The Art Institute of Boston.

This body of work was started at his studio in Florida where he lived prior to moving to Kansas City. In his process, he first plans each piece in pencil and then transfers it to board. He then inks the base and works out the color by doing miniatures before the final painting. His unique technique uses ink as well as liquid textile dyes on board.
It takes an average of three to four months to complete each piece. The final textile dyes cannot be fixed or erased once applied. If he makes a mistake he must start over using the original pencil.
​
Gabe produces work that challenges the mind. His brain-teasing prints use interlocking shapes, transforming creatures, and impossible architectures to challenge the viewer's perceptions of reality. His finely crafted compositions combine precise realism with fantastic explorations of pattern, perspective, and space. Much of Rich’s inspiration came from his passion for M.C. Escher’s work and the intense color palette of Maxfield Parish. He studied engineering perspective to learn how Escher made the impossible possible.
​
Much of his work uses tessellations. They are the process of creating a two-dimensional plane using the repetition of a geometric shape with no overlaps and no gaps. Tessellations frequently appeared in the art of M.C. Escher, who was inspired by studying the Moorish use of symmetry in the Alahambra tiles during a visit in 1922 and who has inspired me since I was a young boy seeing his work at the Boston Museum Of Science. Examples of tessellations in the real world include honeycombs and pavement tilings. His work is then produced in Giclée prints.

Apart from being a graphic artist, he illustrated album covers, designed packaging, as well as a long career as an Art Director and Creative Director.
