17#001 LIMINAL >> Getting started again with PAINT
Enough of the distractions, the Summer break is over and it's back to the Workshop to get painting again. A fresh A2 pad and in there with black & white only (for now).
Acrylic paint, ink, charcoal, chalk, pencil, crayon, glue, salt, & fire are the tools and the project to magic something out of the layers and texture. Some fertile soil to spring forth ideas and imagery.
The energy I get watching it is very powerful. Even if the color is dark, it creates a wide space feeling for me. I feel the same when watching my uncle's painting, which I've attached below.
Cheers Paul, your uncle's painting is really nice. Great composition and balance. I'm working thru things here and clearing the way to do some large paintings.
Upvoted.... found you in the Facebook "Steemit Artists" Group. http://www.facebook.com/groups/steemitartists
cool :) i can see something in it.. a pharaoh
Cheers, I keep seeing things in it, forever shifting like it's some kind of divination portal! I guess that's why we keep returning to abstract art and the whole palimpsest rituals.
I love your paintings and it's making me want to break from the self imposed b/w restriction. Only a few weeks to go...
