[For image click here PORTFOLIO]
"Weeping Boy" (2024) by Paul Scott Malone is a compelling choice for the Future of Art Global Masterpiece Award catalog due to its profound emotional impact and masterful execution. The painting captures a poignant moment with a unique combination of abstract and expressionist techniques, utilizing vibrant colors and dynamic brushstrokes to convey the raw emotion of the subject. The central figure, a boy depicted with exaggerated, almost cartoonish features, evokes a sense of vulnerability and innocence lost in a chaotic world.
The artist's use of contrasting colors, particularly the stark blue of the weeping figure against the warm, turbulent background, creates a striking visual tension. This contrast not only draws the viewer's eye but also symbolizes the internal conflict and turmoil experienced by the boy. The inclusion of various symbolic elements, such as the cat and the suspended blue figure, adds layers of meaning, inviting viewers to interpret the narrative in personal and varied ways. Malone's ability to blend surreal and abstract elements while maintaining a deeply humanistic touch speaks to his exceptional talent and innovative approach. "Weeping Boy" stands out not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its capacity to resonate emotionally with a broad audience, making it a deserving recipient of the Future of Art Global Masterpiece Award.
- ON ART -
WILLIAM FAULKNER ABOUT ART AND IMMORTALITY
"The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means and hold it fixed so that a hundred years later, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again since it is life. Since man is mortal, the only immortality possible for him is to leave something behind him that is immortal since it will always move. This is the artist's way of scribbling "Kilroy was here" on the wall of the final and irrevocable oblivion through which he must someday pass".

"Flotsam and Jetsam, Personal Artifacts, Laughing Gulls (Storm #2)" (2011)
[For image click here STORM]
This abstract painting is an arresting amalgamation of color and movement that commands the viewer's
attention with its raw energy and dynamic composition.
Dominated by a tumultuous interplay of reds, blues, and earthy tones, the artwork evokes a sense of chaos and intensity. Swirling brushstrokes and overlapping forms create a vivid, almost tactile texture, compelling the observer to delve deeper into the scene. The composition is intricate yet harmonious, with contrasting hues meshing together to create a symphony of visual sensation. The use of red conveys passion and urgency, while the blue provides a cooling counterbalance, suggesting depth and contemplation amidst the frenzy.
The earthy tones ground the piece, offering a semblance of stability in an otherwise stormy tableau. What sets this work apart is its ability to marry abstraction with an evocative narrative. While the forms are non-
representational, they hint at figures in motion-perhaps engaged in a frenetic dance or a chaotic battle. TIhe ambiguity invites various interpretations, allowing viewer to imbue the scene with personal significance.
