Rafa Jean's Dear Andy interpretation of Marilyn Monroe

Discover the lovely world of reduction. Take those colors and make them big. The essential bits of each picture can be reduced down to basically nothing – as seen here, in the world of designer Rafa Jenn. He holds them up for you to see. Using such source material as Darth Vader, Andy’s Marilyn, and the Mona Lisa, he divides and conquers with half-circles, flat blocks, and color transitions.

Let me channel @yokoono for a moment by saying What would happen if we reduced every thing we know down to the pieces we need to recognize it? What would happen then if we took, from those parts, only the essential bits? We’d have peace!

Take a peek at the peaceful concoctions of Rafa Jenn below.
