Richard Lee was inspired by Wassily Kandinsky

Wassily Kandinsky was born in 1866. He was one of the founding figures of abstract art, recognized for his innovative approach to visual expression. He intensely focused on the use of lines, colors, and shapes to convey emotions and ideas. Interestingly, he also incorporated sand into his paint, adding texture and depth to his artworks. Kandinsky believed that art was fundamentally about the inner necessity of the artist, reflecting deep personal truths. His paintings often depict cells and cosmic themes, showcasing a unique blend of the micro and macro worlds. He notably rejected the traditional approach of painting recognizable things, places, and people found in the real world. In viewing his works, we can truly see the joy and vitality, encapsulating a sense of liberty and freedom that resonates deeply with audiences.

The hominids are believed to have created stunning paintings in caves on or before 20,000 years ago, marking some of the earliest expressions of human creativity. 2. For various reasons that are not crucial to this discussion, the hominids tragically became extinct over time. 3. A prevailing theory suggests that Homo sapiens ultimately conquered and outlasted the hominids, leading to their disappearance. 4.
