Ever Lasting
“Observation, de-construction, and re-construction of values”

This paper is done on a art piece done by Shunsuke Mizumoto, who is originally from Beijing, China. He has done most of his higher education from here; Boston, MA. His gallery is named Ever Lasting, and my home work is done on the piece that is also posted on the post card of his gallery, named Ever Lasting too. This piece is 40X26” and is done on thick regular paper chart. He used pen on paper and acrylic material on this piece of art. Three different colors have been used on this piece of art; Synthetic paint (aqua and dark silver color) and of course pen on paper. From what I observe from this piece is that he made a design, which seem to be similar to water on sand. The aqua represents water and the small pattern of round shape made by pen represents sand and the silver represents rock. But it seems to be a microscopic view of water and sand, where you can clearly see the separation of water molecule from sand. The artist has done a marvelous job on this piece and that’s why he made it the face of the gallery. What I like about this piece is the pattern of round shape that represents sand. All of his other pieces, he used the same pattern. Most of his work has well defined shapes, some are round and some are irregular. I think he named his gallery Ever Lasting because most of his drawing gives you an image of basic things in life, like water, mountains and round shape stones. It tells a lot about artist that he focus on the details of every each piece and we can see clearly say that he had put a lot of time into this piece.
