There are many many artists throughout history that can blow your mind, but sometimes you come across one that reminds you just how high the bar is. The amazing thing about Mondrian to me is the immense distance between his early works (which are VanGogh-like and amazing) and the geometric masterpieces we all recognize from the end of his career. The evolution of his work is so intense yet it all makes perfect sense when you thumb through any coffee table book or catalogue of his.

His foundational ideas of balance and color clearly jumped to Lichtenstein and had a huge influence on what we now call Pop-Art. He might even be the grandfather of the Pop-Art aesthetic – bold simple colors and hard edges.

Any of his later works are easy to copy but I wanted to pay homage to Mondrian nonetheless. I love ideas of negative space and this was the perfect opportunity to incorporate one so obviously into a pin.
