Corgis In The Sky And Other Oddities By Conrad Ruiz

Painter Conrad Ruiz will never be accused of lacking in imagination, nor will he catch flack for his misuse of color.

His watercolor paintings are an explosion of vibrant hues, pop culture references and an attempt to capture the look and feel of total chaos.

Conrad's other works employ repetition and rhythm to create an interesting optical effect, not necessarily an illusion as much as a field of fine detail for your eyes to get lost in forever.

Interesting artwork. I see he used an image from the Space Shuttle Challenger accident as the basis of some of the background. (A little disturbing for those of us involved - but it is just an image used in a different context.)

Maybe if it were well-done, I could forgive the use of the Challenger explosion, but it's like a television vomited on the canvas. No real value, no real thought.
