Abstracts, Color Explosion, Freedom






I have had so much fun exploring this new way of creating abstracts. I put a few of them in the living room when I first finished them. I like to "live with" a painting sometimes after I finish it. I often see changes I need to make. And sometimes I just like them and enjoy having them around me for a while before they go off to their new homes. Well, these paintings are like no others I have done before. They have such a feeling about them. You would think that having 4 or 5 paintings in one place that all have that much color and action going on would be too busy or somewhat distracting, but I can't explain it....it's just a feeling of positive energy.

This one is one that I did before discovering Flora Bowley.  You can see that it lacks the freedom and abandon that the others have.  However, it will appeal to an entirely different type of person than the others.

It's up to you....Abstract Oil Paintings

24x30....oil on canvas.....$850

It's up to you what you see in these paintings...In the first one I see piano keys and shadowy faces trying to decide who gets to play first.  In the second there is a tiny piano in the bottom right (it's much more evident in the actual painting).  But you want to know what I really see most of all?  I see a dog speeding by with his head out the car window.  But that 's just me. Some have seen a large face, others two Picasso-like faces.  Like I said it's up to you...
