It’s not very often that the average person gets to see the creative process behind a painting. Artist Lawrence Yang decided to change that by photographing the various steps behind his latest work, Fish Triptych.

About Lawrence,

Lawrence Yang wrestles with informational abstractions by day and paints by night. Influenced by graffiti art and traditional Chinese painting, he employs ink, marker, and watercolor, as the permanence of this media adds a sense of immediacy to his work. Lawrence’s paintings make use of color to communicate atmosphere and emotion, and they are concerned primarily with creating order out of chaos (and vice versa). Lawrence once ate an entire bag of Fun Size Three Musketeers™. He lives in San Francisco with his imaginary pets, Cholo and Binky.

Khoda, a 5 minute psychological thriller, took the better part of two years to complete. What’s impressive about it, is that each and every single frame of Khoda is a painstakingly produced painting. Over 6000 unique paintings were created for this student project, a student project that many saw as ‘impossible’. Director Reza Dolatabadi was inspired by the idea of pausing a film and everytime being faced with a different and unique painting.

What do you think of Khoda?
