Metaphorist, Hardcover Book This book is a metaphorical art book-paintings and metaphors on display. It is a coffee table book that won't get old and will always attract attention. As the artist, I intended to entertain and provoke your mind into aha moments. Visual metamorphosis is the term we use to indicate shapeshifting in art. It allows an artist to transform a shape representing one item into a similar form representing something else. In this case, visual and prose metaphors shapeshift mental imagery into different meanings, thought forms, and imagination. |
This is Jeff Layton's eighth book. Art Work: Jeff Layton There are moments in your life that you relive in your mind, sometimes repeatedly. When you stop and think of all the moments you have had in your life-countless, as you couldn't possibly count them all. These moments are significant for many reasons; I hope to make this one. I have a painting a few pages from this one titled "Movement is Forever." It was my breakthrough painting. The image is a moment in time frozen still. It could be titled A Moment is Forever, which isn't true, but it can be when you freeze a moment in time, in your life, in your mind. I believe that is why we had cave art, then artwork paintings, which evolved into a camera and photographs. We wanted to freeze, capture a moment, and make it last forever. |
