50 paintings. 50 days.
Inspired by Ed Hardy’s 2000 Dragons, a 4 x 500-foot work completed during the millennial year, Ace set out on his own temporal body of work. The goal was to complete fifty paintings in the fifty days between New Years Day 2021 and his birthday February 19th.
The challenge led to many explorations of the medium as he pushed himself to go bigger and bolder. The series title Quinquagesimal means “occuring in a season of fifty days / consisting of fifty days”
