Artists We Love :: Cliff Maynard’s Chronic Art
As you probably know by know, we are obsessed by the creative process of artists. When I stumbled upon Cliff Maynard’s Chronic Art, my mind began racing, wondering how he came up with this idea, how expensive his materials must be and how the idea is actually executed. So I went to his website, Chronic-art.com, and found out that the idea came when he was studying mosaics and his roach paper reminded him of tiles. I’m not quite sure how expensive his materials are, but he says that he cuts about 3 ’tiles’ from each roach with an Xacto knife. Then, he creates these complex puzzles that eventually become the pieces you see below.
