Daniel Mullen’s Architectural Paintings.

Man, I think these paintings by Daniel Mullen are absolutely excellent.  Daniel describes them as “architectural volumes” that seem weightless and transparent.  The actual scale of the constructions are left up to the viewers themselves.

You can see more of Daniel’s work below:

Paintings by Amsterdam-based artist Daniel Mullen

Daniel Mullen born 1985 in Glasgow, Scotland. As a child he was fascinated by constructed space, this in combination with Lego became the playground for his imagination. This fascination continued through his time at the Edinburgh Rudolf Steiner school, where he graduated in 2003.

After Completing a gap year in America (working with special needs) Mullen returned to Europe and headed to Amsterdam to study art at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie. Whilst studying there he rediscovered his passion for architecture, subsequently leading to his first Series of highly representational paintings based on modern architecture.

After his graduation in 2011 Mullen continued to develop his work, slowly introducing abstraction in search of a more open interpretation, with an nod to the past but an emphasis on defining the boundaries of his universe. Follow him on Facebook and SaatchiArt.
