untitled blue 6x6 oil, copyright 2012
A week or so ago I found myself very frustrated with a pastel - it wasn't (and really still isn't) working out and I needed a break from it. There are a few of this little gallery wrap canvases lying around, so I decided to attack one with blue paint and a palette knife. The original plan, such as it was, was to paint the sky with a few clouds. That notion disappeared as the paint got thicker and took a life of its own. If you squint a little bit, it almost looks like a landscape, maybe water rushing around hills or mountains. Or not.
I haven't decided if I will keep or paint over it, but it was therapeutic to not have to worry about the end result. And of course I do love my blues!
I thought it was the ocean. Love it whatever it is.
ReplyDeletebtw I like the drawing of your daughter.
It can be the ocean if you want it to be. Someone else said they thought it looked like rapids. Thanks Sue!
