Happy Trails

"Happy Trails" is a captivating piece of art that seamlessly bridges the gap between classical and modern styles. Executed with finesse, the artist has skillfully combined traditional graphite and white pencil techniques with vibrant acrylic colors on a meticulously crafted shaped wood panel canvas. This dynamic fusion of mediums and textures not only adds depth and dimension to the artwork but also enhances the juxtaposition of classical imagery with contemporary visuals. With its thought-provoking composition and harmonious color palette, "Happy Trails" stands as a testament to the artist's ability to create engaging and visually stunning pieces that transcend time and artistic boundaries.

Some develop a world view through acquisition of unbiased knowledge, but the world view of many is pre-ordained by culture, or manipulated by institutions. The world today is striking in its defined sides. Robert Nelson is interested in contrast; innocence/corruption, the infinite/the finite, past/future, good/evil. Robert is fascinated by how meanings can change depending on point of view. He strives for images that are defined differently by each observer. An image where their experiences, prejudices and beliefs all combine into the final experience of the work.
