We all know that great artists have a great imagination. Whatever they create has a huge and impressive mix of reality and fiction. Some of the most successful books we know of today are all fiction, and they go beyond what reality has to offer us. However, those books are limited to words. When great artists get going, their canvas becomes their world, and the myriad of things they put into their work all depends on their imagination. Some paintings are just odd, while others are adventurous and innovative. Asking which one of these expressions goes with what picture is probably not a good question to ask me; however, I know something awesome when I see it.
That’s exactly what I see in the art created by an artist named Laura Bifano. Her art is not only impressive, but it is also full of imagination and innovation. You can literally spend hours looking at her creations since they will always bring a new perspective on our own world. As we have mentioned before, retro art in the form of pixels is coming back strong, and there is no way we can shield ourselves from it. It’s everywhere these days including commercials, games and whatever else there is.
I find Laura’s paintings to be truly inspiring, not only because they are fables created out of pixels, but also because of the colors used and the mood it will strike within you. It’s relaxing, yet quite energizing. The more I look at them, the more I think about the games we used to play as kids. I could probably mention a boatload of retro games and make the longest list of it all, but I take it you know what I mean when I say the pixel was THE most important ingredient in the gaming industry when the gaming market was still in its infancy back in the early ’80s. Let yourself be drawn into the pixel world Laura created, and let it inspire you. The world sure looks good in pixel, don’t you think? You can of course buy these beautiful prints on Laura’s Etsy website.
