A small, but mighty, piece. 🙂
The name was inspired by Buckminster Fuller, someone of whom I’ve been a fan for quite some time. A self-taught scholar, inventor, philosopher, futurist…. He invented the geodesic dome. A Bucky Ball is an allotrope of carbon, fullerene—and a particular molecule of that allotrope C60. that was named after him. OK, yeah, my geeky side is coming out. Ha!
Alright, back to the painting…
I like circles. You’ll see them in lots of my artwork. These, however, were painted with a thingie called a sponge pouncer, a fun little gadget my oil painting friend, Kelly, turned me on to.
This painting came to be while I was in Florida in 2012.
