This web site belongs to video and digital artist Philip Rubinoff. The page that the link will take you to is a video diary of a trip to Israel made in 1993. My favorite work is one called "Robyn in Contemplation". The piece is very linear in style on a back ground of tan. The lines vary in color from magenta to green to black. The concept is interesting. Even with the simplified quality of the image, one can feel that Robyn is deep in thought. The composition draws the viewer in at the upper left hand side of the picture and the colors carry the eye around through the image. The craftsmanship is well done in my opinion. The lines in the design are deliberately varied in thickness. The colors have a slightly smeared effect that adds interest to the piece. All in all, I feel it is a very good piece of art.
