Oil on MDF
40 x 50cm
NOT FOR SALE
I started this one out as a practice piece. I wanted to work on loosening up a bit and at the same time create a strong focal point. It worked out so nicely that I think this is one of my best paintings to date. I very much enjoyed the freedom of thicker brush strokes and, well, painting in the fire where I let go of that ever-so-present inner editor. This seems to be a continual theme with me. I think it is one of the reasons I enjoy painting so much…. it challenges my weaknesses and propels me forward (and if not forward, at least it propels me out of the same place I was in yesterday).
Besides, it’s fun.
Be well, friends….
