TIME IS A CIRCLE by Evan Stuart Marshall. This fanciful cartoon-like painting bends time with a wry layered look at the present day and prehistoric times. "The Matrix" in a Neanderthal cave? Dinosaurs and living fossils lining up to enter a bank? Follow the circle and you'll see that all time happens now; there is no yesterday or tomorrow, only today, and life moves in a never-ending circle. In the water just outside the cave lurks Cthulhu, a malevolent creature invented by the horror writer H. P. Lovecraft, its tentacle reaching inside... A perfect painting for anyone interested in society and popular culture, or for any Matrix fan! This painting is part of a two-painting set: Time Changes Everything and Time Is a Circle. Evan Stuart Marshall has been making things with his hands all his life. The colors in his paintings are vividly bright—sometimes even fluorescent—and Evan combines them in unexpected ways. This painting printed on thick Gallery Wrap Canvas is printed using the latest Giclee techniques on museum grade canvas. Our Giclee printer uses 12 colors to create a rich color gamut giving the deep dark and subtle highlights of an original painting. Our gallery wrap canvases are printed on 100% thick cotton canvas because we noticed that the cheap poly canvas our competitors are using is "sagging" or "draping". 100% thick cotton canvas will loosen naturally when the wood expands and it will shrink like fresh jeans just out of the drier when the wood shrinks. The canvas is then stretched over kiln dried – finger jointed pine. With finger jointing technology the wood stays straight and strong. Finger jointed pine frames are superior to other stretcher frames because we cut around the knots and re-join the wood using the finger jointing technology. When wood expands and contracts around knotty wood it changes it's shape. With finger jointing technology the wood stays straight and strong. The resulting piece of art will last for years of enjoyment.
