Costa's Open Studio, Part 2 (yes, that's PAINT)

Even more impressive than his studio is the work itself. Layer upon layer of meticulously mixed paint create the illusion of space, not only through color and value, but also through the very texture of the paint film. Costa's painting is the type that can never be fully experienced except in person because its illusion is sculptural as well 2D. I took some detail shots because that's about as close as you can get to the real thing.
