Frame 5: Who wants to be normal anyway?

Seeing the works of early Mannerist painter Pontormo was a delightful escape from perfection. His paintings had a uniquely separate colour scheme (cangianti) and a sense of weightlessness unseen before. Most notably with his frescoes in the Certosa di Galluzzo, Florence and his Entombment found in Capponi Chapel, Sta. Felicità, Florence.
Here are some examples:




His paintings remind me of the more independent animation style, such as this Japanese one:


The anti-gravitational and ambiguous setting combined with dynamic compositions truly prevail these works. Also the way art is created in a art for art's sake way or animation for animation's sake - not necessarily symbolic of anything. I hope to create something as groundbreaking one day!
