Rodney Cohen
Born in South Africa, Artist and Industrial Designer, Studied at the Johannesburg College of Art & Design.
To me art is everywhere, in the formations of trees and rocks, in the lines, shadows and details of a building, on billboards or in a doodle.
The theme of much of my work develops during the sketching process. Once a theme is decided, detailing is added and then colour if required.
We know that artists have changed the colours of a work by using different techniques.
My interest differed, I wanted to know & understand how different colours affect the "feel" of the same work & this led to digital art and the OPUS Series - from my sketches to a digital painting.
In the MOTIF Series I use digitized segments of a finished painting & combine them to create different iterations.
A computer monitor became a canvas and apps my brush, paints, pastels, inks and pencils.
Let the creation be a visual and cerebral experience of colour, shape, form and texture.
