Learn From The Downfall Of Others Original Art by Andreas Claussen
Mixed Media Painting
Framed 55cm x 45cm
From Claussen's playful "FLOOD" series, this painting captures a whimsical moment between an astronaut and an inflatable dinosaur float in a submerged world. Set against vibrant turquoise waters, the red-suited figure rides atop a bright green T-Rex pool float, creating a striking juxtaposition between extinction and survival.
Claussen's masterful technique is evident in the underwater effects and the textural details of both the spacesuit and the inflatable toy. His careful attention to color and composition creates a piece that cleverly combines environmental commentary with playful nostalgia, suggesting lessons learned from past extinctions.
