A.Shay Hahn "OBSERVE" at the Wilson 96

OBSERVE
16x20inches,acrylic on canvas
$300.00
at the Wilson 96 (615 College) for Sept.-Oct.
This is the first of the six Propaganda pieces that I painted using a mainstay of propaganda posters and my own work - the pilot. I hadn't yet decided how I would "coopt" the form for my own style/approach. I was focussing more on application of colour and brushstroke. I should have shot some details to show the layers but I'll make sure to do that from now on.
This is probably the most straight ahead of all the pieces.
I'll get more into the process of the text in the next post.
Have a great day sending the kids off to school
