The Umbrella Man, by G Crackle, is a piece of multilayered stencil art, and thus by nature an abstraction. The artist captured the refined essence of the umbrella man by only emphasizing the textures necessary for comprehension. The suit is textured only to show the press of the man's form. Likewise, by contrasting the solid shapes of the man's head and tie in dark blue, against the white of the mans shirt and the back drop, these two forms become dominant–and rightfully, they are defining characteristics of the figure.
