Untitled No. 24958

Description

This began as a color palate and I saw it morphing into an unique design. Black and gold doodles surround the abstraction. Size 3 inch round on 60mil magnetic vinyl.

One of a kind magnetic art. This is hand painted by me with Golden Acrylics. Since 1996 I have signed and numbered over 29,000 pieces. I was drawn to the magnetic media, because no other artist was using it the way I was. I saw other artist sticking a magnet to their art, I thought why not stick my art to the magnet. 12 years later I have found a few other artist using the magnetic vinyl in their own way, but no other artist in the world has used it like me. Everybody's style is unique. I still haven't found another magnet artist as prolific as myself.

If you look up my last name, Gauss, in the dictionary, it actually means unit of magnetic energy. I'm a distant cousin of the mathematician Karl Friedrich Gauss. He discovered the mathematical theory of magnetism. So in a way I'm following my destiny.
