Couple Paintings from the Art Attic

Couple of paintings.  One recent and the other from several months ago.  Acrylic on paper.

Red Spot (2016)

A new acrylic on paper.  Loosely inspired by John Hoyland.

Untitled 12212016 (2016)

My most recent acrylic on paper.  I have been spending some time exploring Matisse’s work.  I love his use of color, his obliteration of the artistic conventions/traditions of his day, his fearlessness with his art, and feel a deep affinity for his work.  This painting is inspired by his work-its beauty, vibrancy, and fearlessness!

Faces (2016)

My most recent acrylic on paper.  Do you see faces?  What do you see when you view this piece, would love to hear your feedback!  Thanks friends.

Frolic (2016)

My most recent acrylic on paper abstract piece.  I find that I’m most drawn from the upper left down through the center of the piece to the small squares in the bottom-center of the piece.

Untitled 12/04/16 (2016)

A new acrylic abstract.  Not sure I’m done with it yet but still figuring out finishing touches.

Sea in Me (2016)

A new acrylic on paper.  It has literally been months since I’ve had the paints and brushes out and I must say it was glorious.  I could not resist the impulse to let my inner painter come out and play!
