Reminds Me of Olives

I really like color combo of the painting I made for a friend, so I created a much smaller scale piece with one of the original sketches I made for her.

I've actually put a glossy finish on it since I took the picture. I like it better that way.
So imagine it if you can....

Random Collage

I've really enjoyed playing with techniques and resources at my disposal with no clear direction.
I let the art tell me what's next.

This one started with a wash of watercolor, acrylic stenciled on top, white paint pen circles, some colored pencil circles and then magazine images added last.

 Not sure if I love this one, but I like the movement I created with the collaged images.
What do you think?

Another Abstract Painting

There's just something that calls me to non-objective and abstract pieces. 
When I sit down to paint for fun, it just flows out of me. 
I can't help it. 
So I surrender....

Yellow Rain

I created this without having any idea of what to do with it, 
so it became a place to try new techniques.

Some techniques didn't work (watercoloring stencils) 
while others turned out pretty well (Neocolors on top of everything).

I think I'm a fan of it as a finished piece though. 



What do you think?

Journey

This watercolor experimentation has been quite the journey. 

All so far have been abstract, 
but some are organic like this and others are more geometric like the next post.
